- Shouldn't there be some indication in errno that no conversion
- was found [ by settz -mod ]? Otherwise, how is one's code supposed to know
- that the string passed to settz() was valid and settz() couldn't find a
- conversion? Both return -1!
-
- [ Maybe EINVAL? -mod ]

- >4.5.4.2 Description
- > The localtime() function converts the calendar time pointed to
- ^^^^^^^^^^^
- I think that this should be 'ctime', as that is the functionality
- desribed by the next two lines:
-
- >by timer to local time in the form of a string. It is equivalent to
- > asctime(localtime(timer))
-
- Otherwise, the proposal looks good to me!
