DateTim...ale::tig(3)
ok so this is DateTime::Locale::tig(3) β straight out of the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, which is where the perl girlies keep all their lore π
β and it's literally just the locale data receipts for the Tigre (tig) locale. It's a pod file full of examples, so it's basically a lookbook, not a rulebook β¨
π NAME π
DateTime::Locale::tig β locale data examples for the Tigre (tig) locale π¦
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Bestie, real talk: this pod file is literally just examples of the locale data that's available for the Tigre locale. That's the whole vibe. No cap, it's a show-and-tell document, so everything below is sample output you can use to check your formatting is giving what it's supposed to give π

The chaotic lil end-of-receipts section, and honestly it's giving "personality quiz results":
Prefers 24 hour time?
Yes
Local first day of the week
1 (Mon)
so the week starts on Monday around here, and the clock is on 24-hour mode. Iconic behaviour, honestly π
π§ Strftime Patterns π§
The strftime-flavoured corner of the data β this is the classic C-library-style formatting, for when you're feeling retro π
%c (%a %b %e %H:%M:%S %Y) - date time format

-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = Sat M09 15 04:44:23 -10
peep the double space before that5in the first line β that's%edoing its day-of-month-padding thing, so leave it exactly as it is, bestie, don't "tidy" it π
%x(%m/%d/%y) β okay so this is the date format, the classic little month/day/year moment π it's giving "short and sweet" and honestly? iconic:
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 02/05/08
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 12/22/95
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 09/15/10
β¨ notice how the negative year still lines up all cute? yeah. we love a consistent queen.
%X(%H:%M:%S) β and this one is the time format, hour:minute:second, no cap π zero notes, she ate:
2008-02-05T18:30:30 = 18:30:30
1995-12-22T09:05:02 = 09:05:02
-0010-09-15T04:44:23 = 04:44:23
ngl if you were looking for something fancier than these two, bestie, this is where the page leaves you β but like, they're solid defaults fr fr π
πΈ SUPPORT πΈ
See DateTime::Locale. that's it, that's the whole support section π«Ά go read it, she's got the locale lore you're actually after π
and that's a wrap on the page, babe π this wasDateTime::Locale-adjacent goodness from perl v5.42.0, dated 2024-12-12 β theDateTim...ale::tig(3)era, truly a moment in terminal history π mwah, go format some dates β¨
