NAME

strftime − language specific strings

DESCRIPTION

There can exist one printable file per locale to specify its date and time formatting information.  These files must be kept in the directory /usr/lib/locale/<locale>/LC_TIME.  The contents of these files are:

1.  abbreviated month names (in order)

2.  month names (in order)

3.  abbreviated weekday names (in order, Sunday first)

4.  weekday names (in order)

5.  default strings that specify formats for locale time (%X) and locale date (%x)

6.  default format for strftime, if the argument for strftime is zero or null

7.  AM (ante meridian) string

8.  PM (post meridian) string

9.  default format for date(1)

Each of the 44 strings is on a line by itself.  All white space is significant.  The order of the strings in the above list is the same order in which they must appear in the file.  Any % and format specifier characters must use the ASCII codeset.
