in thread [Explained] Platform-dependent behavior observed in POSIX::strftime

Thanks, but how to get a desired date string was not my question. I was wondering if anybody could help me understand the difference in behavior between two platforms.

    I believe japhy's solution suggested that taking the lowercase of the string, made some difference in some systems that either ignore case, or make a big deal of it. Like the difference between old windows and a unix system. I thought I would just point that out. There may be a subtle difference, which you may be overlooking.
