I need $timezone to hold the time zone in this format -00:00 The command date +%z will give it as -0000
I know nothing about writing perl scripts. Can somebody show me how to add the : in the output of the date command in the simple following script? The cat statement is just so I can see results are correct. #!/usr/bin/perl $timezone=date +%z; cat $timezone _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
