GNU Date
I know there are some posts on getting the time with milliseconds included and I realize unix may not be the best on this.
I have seem some posts where its advised to install the GNU date.
Any one know where I can download this as I am struggling to find it.
Alternatively - if you have anther utility that can do this on unix - let me know... I dont know C code so would prefer to stay away from that if possible
