[issue14441] Add new date/time directives to strftime()

2012-03-29 Thread Walter Cheuk

New submission from Walter Cheuk :

Please add new directives for decimal-number month, day and hour that have 
neither leading zero nor leading space. Currently %m, %d and %I are used, but 
they have leading zeroes and are not suitable for some languages such as 
Chinese. GNOME provides %e and %l for day and hour, but they have leading space 
instead and are not good enough also.

Yes, this is standard in all Chinese locales, including China, Taiwan, Hong

Usually %m, %d and %I are used instead, but the result is not satisfactory.
