Coverting TimeStamp to '%Y%m%d %H%M' 1

[frangac]

Hi All,

Is there a way to covert a unix timestamp to '%Y%m%d %H%M'
for eg 1080145459 must result to "20040324182419" or "2004/03/24/18:24:19"

I have tried the following and works well, but cannot get the date format that I require.

echo "od1080145459=Y|adb | tr -d '\011' and the result is
2004 Mar 24 18:24:19

Many Thanks
Chris

man date

If you pipe the number to date, I think it will use that date.

Well, the format is not exact, but you can use "perl -we print scalar localtime 1080145459

Try This

date +%Y/%m/%d"/"%H:%M:%S

Thanks and goodluck
