Hello,list,
Maybe it's a simple problem,but I don't know how to do it.
I have a time string,for example:
Thu Mar 9 23:04:03 2006
How can I get it translated to unix timestamp,for example:
1141916656
Thanks.

POSIX has a function mktime that converts arrays returned by localtime
back in seconds from the epoch. You would have to parse the date string
into the appropriate array.
See `perldoc POSIX` and search for "mktime"
See `man mktime` and search for "mktime"
I have never used the function myself so its implementation is left as
an exercise for the reader.
