Oops. Yes, you're right. I didn't think of that... *blush* (Some history: I first found the bug when I noticed that a self-compiled gnuplot 3.6beta-315 dumped core on its "set locale" command (which, among other things, read the month names into gnuplot's internal structures). I traced the bug to strftime() and wrote the test program I posted. But apparently didn't think of valid initalisation... I now got the newest beta of gnuplot (3.6beta-325), and it works (zeros the struct tm before calling strftime()), so I guess someone else noticed the bug too...) By the way, thanks for the quick replies! I'm impressed. :) -- -=- Rjs -=- [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
