[Chicken-users] date, string formatting and locale

[Hugo Arregui]

Hi guys,

I'm facing some troubles getting a formatted string from a date.

1) Using posix:

(use posix)
(time->string (string->time "2" "%d"))
"Tue Jan  2 00:00:00 1900"

but, my current locale es:

(use locale)
(current-locale)
"es_AR.utf8"

(Spanish, Argentina)

2) Trying srfi-19:

srfi-19-io has a format-date, but what kind of format is using?

(require-extension srfi-19-date)
(require-extension srfi-19-io)
(format-date #f "%B" (seconds->date 1))
"%B"

Thanks,
Hugo.
