Hi Everyone
i have a perl file below, one of the line is convert the pcho time to human readable format.
if image, if i have lots of pcho time value in a file, if i use this awk, strftime, then tr -d to remove the \n, then assign it to the variable, this process is very slow.
any way to improve it? like perl has built in function, instead of `` the awk.

If you are looking for the equivalent of this -
in Perl, then you may want to use the "POSIX" module, which includes the strftime function -
The POSIX module is part of Perl's standard distribution, atleast on *nix systems. Otherwise CPAN is your one-stop shop.

Strange behaviour of the strftime() function from gawk (3.1.5):
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 3600)}'
> 02:00:00
$ awk 'BEGIN{print strftime("%T", 0)}'
> 01:00:00
Obviously something with DST but I can not figure out why? To me 3600 epoch seconds remains 01:00, DST or not.

HI,
i wish to convert a millsec value to a readable string format.
the one option is to use strftime.
However this is a bit costly (1-5 micros).
is there a a faster way to do so with just string manipulation
(Note i have the date object which has the time details but wish o avoid strftime) (2 Replies)
hello,
I want to replace awk with a perl one liner in unix.
i use in awk REGEX and FS ( field separator) because
awk syntaxes in different unix os versions have not the same behaviour.

ppmtosixel
ppmtosixel(1) General Commands Manual ppmtosixel(1)NAME
ppmtosixel - convert a portable pixmap into DEC sixel format
SYNOPSIS
ppmtosixel [-raw] [-margin] [ppmfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a portable pixmap as input. Produces sixel commands (SIX) as output. The output is formatted for color printing, e.g. for a DEC
LJ250 color inkjet printer.
If RGB values from the PPM file do not have maxval=100, the RGB values are rescaled. A printer control header and a color assignment table
begin the SIX file. Image data is written in a compressed format by default. A printer control footer ends the image file.
OPTIONS -raw If specified, each pixel will be explicitly described in the image file. If -raw is not specified, output will default to com-
pressed format in which identical adjacent pixels are replaced by "repeat pixel" commands. A raw file is often an order of magni-
tude larger than a compressed file and prints much slower.
-margin
If -margin is not specified, the image will be start at the left margin (of the window, paper, or whatever). If -margin is speci-
fied, a 1.5 inch left margin will offset the image.
PRINTING
Generally, sixel files must reach the printer unfiltered. Use the lpr -x option or cat filename > /dev/tty0?.
BUGS
Upon rescaling, truncation of the least significant bits of RGB values may result in poor color conversion. If the original PPM maxval was
greater than 100, rescaling also reduces the image depth. While the actual RGB values from the ppm file are more or less retained, the
color palette of the LJ250 may not match the colors on your screen. This seems to be a printer limitation.
