| 44 | <h2>Description</h2> |
| 45 | |
| 46 | <p>The MSGLOCALDATEFMT resource specifies the date format for the |
| 47 | <strong><code>$MSGLOCALDATE$</code></strong> resource variable |
| 48 | (i.e. The local date of the current message). |
| 49 | The format is a string containing zero or more conversion |
| 50 | specifications and regular characters. A conversion specification |
| 51 | consists of the '<code><strong>%</strong></code>' character |
| 52 | followed a character that determines the type of conversion. |
| 53 | </p> |
| 54 | |
| 55 | <p>The following lists the possible conversion specifications: |

| 62 | the <b>POSIX::strftime()</b> function will be used. Therefore, there may be |
| 63 | more conversion specifications available. See your system's |
| 64 | <b>strftime()</b> manpage for specifics. |
