GNU Emacs Calc 2.02 Manual
7.7.7.3 Standard Date Formats
There are actually ten standard date formats, numbered 0 through 9.
Entering a blank line at the d d command's prompt gives
you format number 1, Calc's usual format. You can enter any digit
to select the other formats.
To create your own standard date formats, give a numeric prefix
argument from 0 to 9 to the d d command. The format you
enter will be recorded as the new standard format of that
number, as well as becoming the new current date format.
You can save your formats permanently with the m m
command (see section 7. Mode Settings).
