The math someone depends upon where you are but you can do it that way. Be very careful however that you work from years not seconds or you'll get it wrong (not all minutes are 60 seconds long) localtime() will give you a year/day, the rest is up to you and depends a lot on your choice of Calendar - Gregorian/Revised Julian (although these split at 2800) etc, and of course quite a few of them don't have leap days, some move months around and the iranian calendar is a work of art. Viz: if you are going to localise your program you might want to keep its knowledge of calendaring neatly seperated. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
