Hi,
the package wmtime claims that it supports localization. Looking into the code,
it seems more like date customization.
When claiming "localization", it should work as such - respecting LANG, LC_ALL,
etc. environment variables and use locales for the day and month abbreviations.
Please see my patch which adds such support.
Regards,
Milan Cermak

wmtime draws a small amount of garbage to the screen when -noseconds is
given, because DrawTime reads beyond the given string buffer. This
doesn't trigger all the time for me (I assume due to the nondeterminism
of reading uninitialized memory or something), but it pretty clearly
happens if I switch VTs.
The attached patch limits the amount of the formatted string we try to
read, so we don't read beyond the end of the string. Fixes it for me.
