I also have an interest in this. I have been using these TeX statements in thconfig: \the\legendtextsize\ Map generated at \the\time \the\currentdate\medskip \the\legendtextsize\ Therion version \the\thversion Which results in a date output that looks like this: Map generated at 51009/04/25 I am using Linux - Fedora 42. It would be nice to show the date in a more readable format. =============== Bill Gee On 9/18/25 21:56, bruce@tomo.co.nz wrote:

It takes the system date and format as input. So I was using Windows 10 OS settings to format the date how I preferred it, in the case, d Mmm YYYY.
Seems that Windows 11, my new OS does not have the ability to format the system date in manner(s) that I find useful.
Is there a way for Therion to take the date provided by the OS and reformat it?
Think I recall someone did offer up something a little cumbersome, but it escapes me just now. Anyway, perhaps there is a better way today?
(Run Therion in a Win10 VM?)
