DateStrings.cpp

/* DateStrings.cpp
 * Definitions for date strings for use with the Time library
 *
 * Updated for Arduino 1.5.7 18 July 2014
 *
 * No memory is consumed in the sketch if your code does not call any of the string methods
 * You can change the text of the strings, make sure the short strings are each exactly 3 characters 
 * the long strings can be any length up to the constant dt_MAX_STRING_LEN defined in TimeLib.h
 *
