Detailed Description

Find if our locale matches a well-known one.

We only test the LC_TIME attribute. We don't check for UTF or any of the other variants.

There is a complication with input dates. They can be POSIX, UK or US style. Distinguishes between date formats.

• POSIX yyyy-mm-dd
• UK dd-mm-yy
• US mm-dd-yy We default to POSIX. If you want to recognise other date formats, use the adjust() method to set the date handling to one of those given.
