Add milliseconds to strftime()

[av]

Hi,

I'd like to know if it is possible to get the milliseconds() in this expression for example:

echo strftime("%Y-%m-%d_%H:%M:%S")

Thanks,

Alexandre

Given that “strftime()” is based on the C function, and since there is
no mention of milliseconds in “man strftime”, I guess the answer is no.

Best,

As Paul Isambert says, vim strftime is based on the C function, which uses a struct tm that has no field for parts of a second.

If your vim has python (look for +python in your :version output), you can ask
python, f.ex. in vim

:python import datetime
:python print datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%H:%M:%S.%f")
