 If \fIformat\fR is \fB(char *)0\fR, then the locale's default format is used.
 For \fBstrftime()\fR the default format is the same as \fB%c\fR; for
-\fBcftime()\fR and \fBascftime()\fR the default format is the same as \fB%C\fR.
+\fBcftime()\fR and \fBascftime()\fR the default format is the same as \fB%+\fR.
 \fBcftime()\fR and \fBascftime()\fR first try to use the value of the
 environment variable \fBCFTIME\fR, and if that is undefined or empty, the
 default format is used.
