Full Discussion: Parsing log files, displaying logs between specific dates
Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Parsing log files, displaying logs between specific dates Post 302294840 by ripat on Friday 6th of March 2009 03:19:27 AM

@Haris, this is another problem than the OP. But however, here is a possible solution depending on your distribution. This one is using GNU coreutils date command.

Code:
dte=05032009
dteIso=$(echo $dte | sed 's/\(..\)\(..\)\(....\)/\3\2\1/')
LC_ALL=C date -d $dteIso +'%d %B %Y'
