Hi,

I usually have to work with dates and i miss a date format character
wich returns year of the week. I'm not a C developer, i could just play
with it in datetime.c, but i send the patch file, please check this and
if you are interest in it, use in the future.

About the working:
in case 01/01/2003 returns 2003
in case 31/12/2003 returns 2004

the format character is X.

thanks

I havn't looked at your patch yet, but does this differ in any way from
strftime('%G') ?

The funcionality is the same. But i think it could have place in the
date() function... or no? :)

If it's the same why add a new modifier?

1. the G modifier is already used in date() function
2. i'm really a beginner in this list, so please don't cross-question
me  :))

I agree date should have it, week of year is a common format for a date
function to return, i was surprised to see it wasnt in there.

I didn't mean to imply it didn't belong in date() simply because it already
existed in strftime(), I just wanted to make sure I understood what was
being asked for.

To invert the question: why date() exists? Life should be more simpler.
Besides, you have to set C LANG whether some texty date representation
comes.
