I'm converting a bash script to python as it has become rather clumsy in bash.
However I have hit a problem with converting dates, the bash script has:- dat=$(date --date "$1" +"%Y/%m/%d") and this will accept almost anything reasonably sensible that can be interpreted as a date, in particular it accepts things like "tomorrow", "yesterday" and "next thursday". Is there anything similar in Python or would I be better off simply using os.system() to run date from the python program? -- Chris Green ยท -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
