Synopsis:
   set clock_format <text>

Description:
   This determines the format of the status bar clock. It is unset by default,
   and yields the traditional behavior until is given a value.

       %a     The abbreviated weekday name according to the  cur-
              rent locale.

       %A     The  full  weekday  name  according  to the current
              locale.

       %b     The abbreviated month name according to the current
              locale.

       %B     The  full  month  name  according  to  the  current
              locale.

       %d     The day of the month as a decimal number (range  01
              to 31).

       %D     Equivalent  to  %m/%d/%y.  (Yecch  -  for Americans
              only.  Americans should note that  in  other  coun-
              tries %d/%m/%y is rather common. This means that in
              international context this format is ambiguous  and
              should not be used.) (SU)

       %e     Like  %d, the day of the month as a decimal number,
              but a leading zero is replaced by a space. (SU)

              The 4-digit year corresponding to the ISO week num-
              ber (see %V).  This has the same format  and  value
              as  %y,  except that if the ISO week number belongs
              to the previous or next year,  that  year  is  used
              instead. (TZ)

       %g     Like  %G, but without century, i.e., with a 2-digit
              year (00-99). (TZ)
