I'm trying to figure out how to write a script that will convert the date and time to and from the ctime format. I've seen some examples of this done in perl, but is there a way to write a script using ksh, csh, or sh? I'm on an HP-UX 11i. Thanks,

Hi

If you have GNU [tt]date[/tt] :
Code: 
[blue]master #[/blue] date -d "Tue Jan  9 17:09:47 2007" +"%F %T"
2007-01-09 17:09:47

[blue]master #[/blue] date -d "2007-01-09 17:09:47" +%c
Tue Jan  9 17:09:47 2007
