+ *
+ * Parameters:
+ *  timer - Pointer to stored time.
+ *
+ * Returns:
+ *  Pointer to the character string result. NULL will be returned if time
+ *  represents a date before midnight, January 1, 1970, UTC.
+ *
+ * Remarks:
+ *  Converts a time value stored as a `time_t` value into a chracter string.
+ *  The `timer` value is usually obtained from a call to *time*, which returns
+ *  the number of seconds since midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC. The return
+ *  value of the string contains exactly 26 characters. A 24-hour clock is used.
+ *  All fields have constant width. The newline chracter and the null character
+ *  occupy the last two positions of the string. The converted character string
