Your first resort for more information about the standard library
should be the online standard library reference
<URL:http://docs.python.org/lib/>.
Searching that reference, you'll find the documentation for the time
module <URL:http://docs.python.org/lib/module-time.html> and
specifically the time.strftime function
<URL:http://docs.python.org/lib/module-time.html#l2h-2816> which
describes the format codes it expects.
