Hi - I need to add support to a program for dates and times. The built-in Python library seems to be okay for many purposes, but what I would like would be Unix epoch style times (seconds relative to some date), covering a large period from the past to the future. What would be nice would be a library which can take floating point seconds from an epoch.
Does anyone know of a library which can convert from human style dates and times to a floating point epoch and back again? I expect I could fudge the fractional seconds with the built-in library, but I can't see how to get dates in the past. Thanks, Jeremy. -- Jeremy Sanders http://www.jeremysanders.net/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
