Check out the localtime function. Here's a few examples:

$date = localtime;
print "$date\n"; # outputs - Mon Jul 22 16:32:36 2002

@date = localtime;
$dayofmon = $date[3];
$mon = $date[4] + 1; # 1st month is 0
$year = $date[5] + 1900; # year relative to 1900
print "today's date is ${mon}/${dayofmon}/${year}\n";
# outputs - today's date is 7/22/2002
