Time::Format provides a very easy way to format dates and times. The
|
||
|
|
formatting functions are tied to hash variables, so they can be used
|
||
|
|
inside strings as well as in ordinary expressions. The formatting
|
||
|
|
codes used are meant to be easy to remember, use, and read. They
|
||
|
|
follow a simple, consistent pattern. If I've done my job right, once
|
||
|
|
you learn the codes, you should never have to refer to the
|
||
|
|
documentation again. A quick-reference page is included, just in
|
||
|
|
case. ;-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Time::Format can also format DateTime objects, and strings created
|
||
|
|
with Date::Manip.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also provided is a tied-hash interface to POSIX::strftime and
|
||
|
|
Date::Manip::UnixDate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If the I18N::Langinfo module is available, Time::Format provides
|
||
|
|
weekday and month names in a language appropriate for your locale.
