Hi, it's supper time in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
It is sunset and the sky is nice game of various colors from pink
to dark blue, clouds shapes are invoking my imagination,
the weather is just ok - neither cold nor hot...
...and I'm sitting behind my computer...

I won't list my country specifics since nobody
is interested in them.

The Win32 API provides function GetDateFormat for getting
local formatted date. GetLocaleInfo also provide some info
about local's specifics:

LOCALE_ICALENDARTYPE
LOCALE_SDATE
LOCALE_ICURRDIGITS
LOCALE_SDECIMAL
LOCALE_ICURRENCY
etc.
