Please take a look at a first attempt at writing a replacement for the standard time library. http://semantic.org/TimeLib/

The general structure of the library looked quite nice.

There seems to be no portable way of getting the timezone information but many applications will need a list of timezones. In this case it seems that offering something is better than nothing.

Also having something like strftime available would be handy.

Thanks. formatTime should work as strftime, though I haven't documented all the %-codes. It's written in Haskell, though I test it thoroughly against strftime. -- Ashley Yakeley, Seattle WA
