49 "*Format of the string inserted by \\[time-stamp].
50 The value may be a string or a list. Lists are supported only for
51 backward compatibility; see variable `time-stamp-old-format-warn'.
53 A string is used verbatim except for character sequences beginning
54 with %, as follows. The values of non-numeric formatted items depend
55 on the locale setting recorded in `system-time-locale' and
56 `locale-coding-system'. The examples here are for the default
59 %:a weekday name: `Monday'. %#A gives uppercase: `MONDAY'
60 %3a abbreviated weekday: `Mon'. %3A gives uppercase: `MON'
61 %:b month name: `January'. %#B gives uppercase: `JANUARY'
62 %3b abbreviated month: `Jan'. %3B gives uppercase: `JAN'
64 %02H 24-hour clock hour
65 %02I 12-hour clock hour
68 %#p `am' or `pm'. %P gives uppercase: `AM' or `PM'
70 %w day number of week, Sunday is 0
71 %02y 2-digit year: `97' %:y 4-digit year: `1997'
72 %z time zone name: `est'. %Z gives uppercase: `EST'
75 %% a literal percent character: `%'
76 %f file name without directory %F gives absolute pathname
78 %u user's login name %U user's full name
81 Decimal digits between the % and the type character specify the
82 field width. Strings are truncated on the right; years on the left.
83 A leading zero in the field width zero-fills a number.
85 For example, to get the format used by the `date' command,
86 use \"%3a %3b %2d %02H:%02M:%02S %Z %:y\".
88 In the future these formats will be aligned more with `format-time-string'.
89 Because of this transition, the default padding for numeric formats will
90 change in a future version. Therefore either a padding width should be
91 specified, or the : modifier should be used to explicitly request the
