.TH CTIME 3
.SH NAME
ctime, localtime, gmtime, asctime, tm2sec, timezone \- convert date and time
.SH SYNOPSIS

char* ctime(long clock)

.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Ctime
converts a time
.I clock
such as returned by
.IR time (3)
into
.SM ASCII
(sic)
and returns a pointer to a
30-byte string
in the following form.
All the fields have constant width.

.PP
.I Localtime
and
.I gmtime
return pointers to structures containing
the broken-down time.
.I Localtime
corrects for the time zone and possible daylight savings time;
.I gmtime
converts directly to GMT.
.I Asctime
converts a broken-down time to
.SM ASCII
and returns a pointer
to a 30-byte string.

typedef
struct {
int sec; /* seconds (range 0..59) */
int min; /* minutes (0..59) */
int hour; /* hours (0..23) */
int mday; /* day of the month (1..31) */
int mon; /* month of the year (0..11) */
int year; /* year A.D. \- 1900 */
int wday; /* day of week (0..6, Sunday = 0) */
int yday; /* day of year (0..365) */
char zone[4]; /* time zone name */
int tzoff; /* time zone delta from GMT */
} Tm;
.EE
.PP
.I Tm2sec
converts a broken-down time to
seconds since the start of the epoch.
It ignores
.BR wday ,
and assumes the local time zone
if
.B zone
is not
.BR GMT .

.SH "SEE ALSO"
.IR date (1),
.IR time (3)
.SH BUGS
The return values point to static data
whose content is overwritten by each call.
.br
Daylight Savings Time is ``normal'' in the Southern hemisphere.
.br
These routines are not equipped to handle non-\c
.SM ASCII
text, and are provincial anyway.
