Sorry for the "telegram" ;-)

I have been working all day yesterday using my functions using
'with-locale-environment' and I didn't experience any flicker.
On that side good. On the other hand, I still think that a macro only
controlling the system-locale for the time functions may be useful despite,
I admit, being somehow redundant. My feeling is that many of the settings
changed in with-locale-environment don't need to be changed for
format-time-string.

Digression: What about adding a third (optional) parameter to
format-time-string to set the locale for a specific call? This could be an
alternative which might be more-lightweight than with-locale-environment,
wouldn't it?

Best, /PA
