          CFTIME(4)            INTERACTIVE UNIX System            CFTIME(4)



          NAME
               cftime - language specific strings

          DESCRIPTION
               The programmer can create one printable file per language.
               These files must be kept in a special directory /lib/cftime.
               If this directory does not exist, the programmer should
               create it.  The contents of these files are:

               ⊕ abbreviated month names (in order)

               ⊕ month names (in order)

               ⊕ abbreviated weekday names (in order)

               ⊕ weekday names (in order)

               ⊕ default strings that specify formats for local time (%x) and
                         local date (%X).

          or null.
               ⊕ default format for cftime, if the argument for cftime is zero

               ⊕ AM (ante meridian) string

               ⊕ PM (post meridian) string

               Each string is on a line by itself.  All white space is sig-
               nificant.  The order of the strings in the above list is the
               same order in which the strings appear in the file shown
               below.
