27 ;;; Commentary:
29 ;; A template in a file can be updated with a new time stamp when
30 ;; you save the file. For example:
31 ;; static char *ts = "sdmain.c Time-stamp: <2001-08-13 10:20:51 gildea>";
32 ;; See the top of `time-stamp.el' for another example.
34 ;; To use time-stamping, add this line to your .emacs file:
35 ;; (add-hook 'before-save-hook 'time-stamp)
36 ;; Now any time-stamp templates in your files will be updated automatically.
38 ;; See the documentation for the functions `time-stamp'
39 ;; and `time-stamp-toggle-active' for details.

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
57 \(`C') locale.
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'
63 %02d day of month
64 %02H 24-hour clock hour
65 %02I 12-hour clock hour
66 %02m month number
67 %02M minute
68 %#p `am' or `pm'. %P gives uppercase: `AM' or `PM'
69 %02S seconds
70 %w day number of week, Sunday is 0
71 %02y 2-digit year: `03' %:y 4-digit year: `2003'
72 %z time zone name: `est'. %Z gives uppercase: `EST'
74 Non-date items:
75 %% a literal percent character: `%'
76 %f file name without directory %F gives absolute pathname
77 %s system name
78 %u user's login name %U user's full name
79 %h mail host 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
92 historical default."
