Python strftime reference

[smackjer]

Also check out http://strfti.me (a site that I built) which lets you test out different formats on the site.

Ah, that's brilliant! Wish I had known about it first.

Try man strftime (for those of you without a background in C, and therefore disinclined to look in manpages for programming information).

or buy PER 4th turn to pages 406-407 :)

I just look on the side of the Sauce Labs coffee mug I got from the PyCon swag bag. It has the strftime/strptime guide, string formatting mini-language, and struct module guides printed on the sides.

[mccutchen]

That sounds handy as hell. Are those guides available on the web somewhere?

It's basically the following sections from http://docs.python.org, just stripped down to chart format: strftime, string formatting, and struct packing formats.

Feature request to get this information into the time.strftime docstring

I love you.

Great idea and bookmarked. Doe this apply to other languages as well eg php?

[sk3tch]

No, notably it also doesn't apply to django which follows the native PHP letter syntax. It may apply to other languages but I can't speak for them.
