List of valid date formats for apex:outputText with apex:param

Hi Everyone!

 

Does anybody have a list of valid date format strings for the apex:outputText tag?  Here is sample code:

 

{<apex:outputtext value="{0,date,yyyy.MM.dd}"> <apex:param value="{!dr.Report_Date__c}" /> </apex:outputtext> }

 

This code works, but I would like to re-format Report_Date__c to "Tue Jan 17".  In general, I would like to know what are all the formatting strings available,not just for dates, but for everything else, too.  Can't find it in the Visualforce Developer's Guide.
