Thus spake sluggo@unknown.nu (sluggo@unknown.nu): > I've never seen anything before that I thought should be included in the base system, but this is a pretty handy, small utility that I think fills a very common need: mktime(1). It performs simple arithmetic on the date similar to mktime(3), crucial for all kinds of scheduled tasks. It's public domain. It lives at <http://members.home.net/john.r.macmillan/technogeek/source/mktime/>. this can be done with date(1)'s -v option, you know? Alex > this can be done with date(1)'s -v option, you know? Oops. Never mind... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Kim Scarborough http://www.unknown.nu/kim/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Tragedy is when I cut my finger.
