I'm trying to get the locale-aware date format but it doesn't seem to
be available through nl_langinfo in python 2.5.4 (windows vista).

Python 2.5.4 (r254:67916, Dec 23 2008, 15:10:54) [MSC v.1310 32 bit
(Intel)] onType "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more
information.
>>> import locale;locale.nl_langinfo
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'nl_langinfo'


Is that what I should be using? Is there any other way for getting that info?

Thanks,

Fabio

There is the %x format specifier in the time module, but it doesn't
actually tell you the format, it merely parses/outputs data in that
format; thus, it's rather opaque.
http://docs.python.org/library/time.html#time.strftime

Cheers,
Chris
