I know about the STRFTIME function, but according to Python Ess. Ref,
there's also a STRPTIME function. Maybe it was in 1.5.2 and it's gone in 2.1.
If that's the case, how do I go about taking a string representinig a
certain time and turn it into a tuple of the same form as returned by
LOCALTIME?
Thanks,
