This seems like a dead simple question, as it's so rudimentary I can't believe it hasn't been addressed before. I'm using the time.strftime() function (actually the mxDateTime implementation, but they're compatible so it shouldn't matter) to spit out fairly basic date formats, to wit:
January 25th, 2005 The various and sundry date objects in both mxDateTime and Python proper's time/datetime don't seem to have anything anywhere dealing with the 'th' suffix on the date. So in other words, I can use strftime() to get 'January 25, 2005' but don't see anything dealing with outputting the suffixes like 'th', 'nd' and the like. Googling around and searching this list's archives aren't turning anything up, either. Am I missing something obvious, or is it just really, really frowned upon to use such a locale-specific function as English date suffixes? Thanks, Jeff -- Jeffrey E.
