Im getting the following error:
Format not terminated in file ./asts_report.pl at line 39, next char ^?
Execution of ./arepo
I want to get the output from the following command into an variable:
system("date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S");
I have tried:
$output = system("date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S");
But that does not work (only get 0 in that variable).
Please help!

For addition
At work I only have access to Perl v. 4 which seems very different from Perl
v. 5 which I have used before. Is it painless to install Perl 5 without
modifing the Perl 4 version? Is it OK to just install it another place than
where Perl 4 is?
It is very important that I don't in any way interfere
