diary: date format

diary: date format

[Emabela]

Hello Everybody,

 

 How can I specify the date format for the diary?

I would use Japanese/Hungarian date format:

 YYYY.MM.DD.

e.g. in ~/diary.



Is there something like japanese-calendar?



Thanks for any help.



Regards,

B.

You set the value of diary-date-forms (see the documentation for details).

If you want ONLY that style, set

(setq diary-date-forms '((year "." month "." day" [^/0-9]")))

This will lose the possibility of having day names, etc recognized.  For
example, the standard European value for diary-date-forms is

  '((day "/" month "[^/0-9]")
    (day "/" month "/" year "[^0-9]")
    (backup day " *" monthname "\\W+\\<\\([^*0-9]\\|\\([0-9]+[:aApP]\\)\\)")
    (day " *" monthname " *" year "[^0-9]")
    (dayname "\\W"))

And how can I specify the localized day names?

With calendar-day-name-array?

Or with

(setq dayname '("localizedmonday" "andsoon"))  ?

This is in German:

(defvar calendar-day-name-array
   ["Sonntag" "Montag" "Dienstag" "Mittwoch" "Donnerstag" "Freitag" 
"Samstag"])
(defvar calendar-day-abbrev-array
   ["So" "Mo" "Di" "Mi" "Do" "Fr" "Sa"])
(defvar calendar-month-name-array
   ["Januar" "Februar" "März"      "April"   "Mai"      "Juni"
    "Juli"   "August"  "September" "Oktober" "November" "Dezember"])
(defvar calendar-month-abbrev-array
   ["Jan" "Feb" "Mär" "Apr" "Mai" "Jun" "Jul" "Aug" "Sep" "Okt" "Nov" 
"Dez"])
(defvar calendar-date-display-form
    '((format "%2s, %2s. %9s %4s"
              (substring dayname 0 2) day (string-make-multibyte 
monthname) year)))

The English examples are in calendar.el.
