Oh right: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=9859 http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/localedata/locales/fr_FR.diff?r1=1.14&r2=1.15&cvsroot=glibc&f=h Wow misaligned names are surprisingly unreadable: $ LANG=ga_IE.utf8 TIME_STYLE=+"%b %e %H:%M" ./ls -l -h ls.c echo.c -rw-rw-r-- 1 padraig padraig 6.3K Ean 21 17:46 echo.c -rw-rw-r-- 1 padraig padraig 124K Márta 6 22:47 ls.c As in the other thread that Eric referenced above, strftime("%5b") should align to displayed characters rather than bytes. If that is not feasible (I guess it might not be) then we could detect the %b (with or without width), and use something like this to format that portion separately. http://git.kernel.org/?p=utils/util-linux-ng/util-linux-ng.git;a=blob;f=misc-utils/cal.c;h=2417f1b5a999f0546d16a46dc1e85d937bafb671;hb=HEAD#l765 cheers, Pádraig. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
