This library provides a binding to strptime, that allows one to parse dates and times from strings and strict/lazy bytestrings. the library creates localtime values. it provides some extra features which the original strptime lacks - parsing of fractional seconds and parsing of ten-powers of seconds since epoch (for example milliseconds since epoch). this package provides the documentation for a library for the haskell programming language. see http://www.haskell.org/ for more information on haskell.
