More annoying quirks - c:date again, and locale - how do I tell c:date to accept English input even when my locates are Norwegian? And how lame is it, that it insists on "local" language input, when the error message it spits out, is always in english? It is kinda hopeless to use c:date in scripts, since what it spits out and accept as input, depends on locale settings. I have tried to set both local and global variable "language", but it doesn't care.
It is probably using dos.library/StrToDate() with FORMAT_DEF to parse input. With that option it is always using localized parsing. Other options are international format (whaaat...), Canadian (eh?), American (USA) and AmigaDOS format.
There is something missing in the API and it is consistency...
