  44   45  characters that determine the conversion specification's behavior.  All
  45   46  ordinary characters (including the terminating null byte) are copied unchanged
  46   47  into the array pointed to by \fIs\fR. If copying takes place between objects
  47   48  that overlap, the behavior is undefined. For \fBstrftime()\fR, no more than
  48   49  \fImaxsize\fR bytes are placed into the array.

  51   52  If \fIformat\fR is \fB(char *)0\fR, then the locale's default format is used.
  52   53  For \fBstrftime()\fR the default format is the same as \fB%c\fR; for
  53      -\fBcftime()\fR and \fBascftime()\fR the default format is the same as \fB%C\fR.
       54 +\fBcftime()\fR and \fBascftime()\fR the default format is the same as \fB%+\fR.
  54   55  \fBcftime()\fR and \fBascftime()\fR first try to use the value of the
  55   56  environment variable \fBCFTIME\fR, and if that is undefined or empty, the
  56   57  default format is used.

  59   60  Each conversion specification is replaced by appropriate characters as
  60   61  described in the following list. The appropriate characters are determined by
  61   62  the \fBLC_TIME\fR category of the program's locale and by the values contained
  62   63  in the structure pointed to by \fItimeptr\fR for \fBstrftime()\fR and
