+icudate: a sample program which displays the current date
+
+This sample demonstrates
+ Formatting a date
+ Outputting text in the default codepage to the console
+
+
+Files:
+ date.c Main source file
+ uprint.h codepage output convenience header
+ uprint.h codepage output convenience implementation
+ date.sln Windows MSVC workspace. Double-click this to get started.
+ date.vcproj Windows MSVC project file
+
+To Build icudate on Windows
+ 1. Install and build ICU
+ 2. In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\date\date.sln
+ 3. Choose a Debug or Release build.
+ 4. Build.
+
+To Run on Windows
+ 1. Start a command shell window
+ 2. Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g.
+ set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH%
+ (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.)
+ 3. cd into the icudate directory, e.g.
+ cd c:\icu\source\samples\date\debug
+ 4. Run it (Warning: Be careful, 'date' is also a system command on many systems)
+ .\date
+
+To Build on Unixes
+ 1. Build ICU. icudate is built automatically by default unless samples are turned off.
+ Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,
+ using the --prefix option. The steps to build ICU will look something
+ like this:
+ cd <icu directory>/source
+ runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]
+ gmake all
+
+ 2. Install ICU,
+ gmake install
+
+ To Run on Unixes
+ cd <icu directory>/source/samples/date
+
+ gmake check
+ -or-
+
+ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+ date
+
+
+ Note: The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.
+ If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of
+ the variable that is used there. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name
+ for Linux and Solaris.
