Does anybody know how to clean up the system time :
Tue May 1 10:18:32 BST 2001
or select only part of it to give a more managable date format that can be
used to stamp an output file from a program :
$a = system ("date"); # OR A TRUNCATED VERSION????
# OR CLEAN IT UP HERE ???
$b = "filename.$a.txt"; # NOT SO SURE ABOUT THIS EITHER???
open (OUT2,">$b");
Thanks a lot!
