strfrtime in a template?

[SneakyDave]

I have an external application that updates a custom user profile field with an integer time.

Is there a way to format the date/time with strfrtime in an xF template or do I need to create some kind of callback to do that?

Here's an example taken from one of my add-ons.

<td>{xen:datetime $conversation.start_date}</td>

Woohoo! Thanks AndyB, I was wondering why I couldn't find any references to strfrtime with a search.

Now I have the same question about sprintf. Can't seem to find that anywhere, or even to convert a value to 2 decimal places.

I did find the useful xen:calc function though, so all is not lost.

Maybe I can use {xen:number $var, size}, off to see if these are in the xF documentation.
