Description Aurelien Jarno 2008-02-20 07:10:20 UTC

The patch below defines the AM/PM format for the es_CR locale.

It seems to be either AM/PM or a.m./p.m.

But nowhere it is A.M./P.M.

Oops you are right this is a mistake in my patch. The correct format is 
a.m./p.m. as defined by the Royal Spanish Academy:

http://buscon.rae.es/dpdI/SrvltGUIBusDPD?origen=RAE&lema=post%20mer%EDdiem

The patch below should be correct now.
