RE: unix time conversion function

Yes I knew it was easier in perl, I prefer to distribute a single script whenever possible and I write pretty much everything in shell. However, I just figured out a trick to put the perl directly in my .ksh scripts (see the post I posted a few minutes ago) so I will likely change the way I have been doing that. Thanks for the perl however, saved me some time looking it up!  

See ya at the Symposium!  

Thanks,
Ethan

At the risk of stating the obvious, doing it in Perl looks like this:  

#!/usr/bin/perl

use Date::Format qw(time2str);

my $t = 1043447100; # for example

print time2str("%T %A %d %B %Y", $t), "\n";
