| + | ======Synopsis:====== | ||
| + | $__stime__(<integer representing UTC value>) | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Technical:====== | ||
| + | * If the argument is omitted, this function returns the empty string. | ||
| + | * The function passes the integer value you provide to the __ctime__ C Library Function and returns the result, after chopping off the trailing newline. | ||
| + | * The return value of this function is supposed to be human readable. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Practical:====== | ||
| + | This function converts the return value of $[[time function|time]]() | ||
| + | into something a human being can understand. It is a simpler version of | ||
| + | the $[[strftime]]() function. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Returns:====== | ||
| + | current date/time string in human-readable form | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======Examples:====== | ||
| + | <file> | ||
| + | $stime($time()) current time string | ||
| + | $stime(0) the dawn of time | ||
| + | </file> | ||
| + | |||
| + | ======History:====== | ||
| + | This function first appeared in ircII. | ||
