DD/MM/YYYY needed as well as MM/DD/YYYY
Last modified: 2009-10-05 14:26:36 UTC
Today might be 06.09.2009 in the USA, but in the rest of the world it is 09.06.2009. The digital clock screen saver seems to ignore the configured date format.
this is not applicable in the digital clock as date is never presented as a continuous string, but this does needs fixing in the dot matrix clock Noah and I discussed this today and agreed that the available date formats under Settings->Advanced->Date and Time->Date Format could possibly be drastically reduced given the new clock designs to: MM.DD.YYYY and DD.MM.YYYY this may be a bit shortsighted however as we don't necessarily want to remove the ability of a new clock (e.g., a third party applet) from being able to allow a greater range of date string formats. Could be we need a separate settings menu for "short date format" or some such thing...
local format2EndianTable = { ["%a %d %b %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%a %d. %b %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%a, %b %d, '%y"] = "little-endian", ["%a, %d %b, %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%a, %d. %b, %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%A %d %B %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%A %d. %B %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%A, %B %d, %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%A, %B. %d, %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%d %B %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%d. %B %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%B %d, %Y"] = "little-endian", ["%Y-%m-%d"] = "big-endian", ["%Y-%m-%d %A"] = "big-endian", ["%Y-%m-%d (%a)"] = "big-endian", ["%Y/%m/%d"] = "big-endian", ... ["%m-%d-%Y"] = "middle-endian", ["%m-%d-%y"] = "middle-endian", }
this is an administrative shuffle on priority fields to help make better judgment on the top end of the priority list. P4->P5, P3->P4, and P2->P3.
Short Date format is obeyed in Dot Matrix Clock. There is nothing to be done here for the Digital Clock.
