Note #2: Time Procedures

This page is part of the web mail archives of SRFI 19 from before July 7th, 2015. The new archives for SRFI 19 contain all messages, not just those from before July 7th, 2015.



Note #2: Time Procedures

In addition to the time conversion procedures described in Note #1, we
need:

- Time creation procedures (including a time-copy)
- Time comparison procedures (time<? etc.)
- Time arithmetic (addition/subtraction with durations; time difference
resulting in duration)

- Time formatting procedures, providing both standard ISO Standard 8601
support (without going overboard here), and general formatting operators
(like SCSH and C strftime, etc.)

- Time reading procedures from ISO Standard strings (again, without
going overboard).
