No matter the standard or format, it may feel strange to some users, and cause confusion. The locales were invented for a reason :-) strftime('%x') seems to work even on Windows, which is usually finicky with these formats. I also don't see a need for parsing that output, and the variable width can be dealt with. +1 for using the proper locale. -- regards, ingo -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
