Oh btw, when we are about sucking time functions: the %s and %z strftime- sequences used further down are also non-standard (POSIX has no %s, old libc has neither %s nor %z). A possible workaround: void make_datestamp(char *buf) { time_t now; struct tm *tm; int tz; time(&now); tm = localtime(&now); /* get timezone and tm_isdst */ tz = -timezone / 60; if (tm->tm_isdst > 0) tz += 60; sprintf(buf, "%lu %+05d", now, tz/60*100+tz%60); } That *should* work on any POSIX system but who knows ...
