NAME
timetrans - Converts time into time
SYNOPSIS
timetrans [units-options] [-count]
DESCRIPTION
timetrans converts time from one type of unit to another. If any of the units options are specified, then timetrans will convert those
time units into the number of seconds to which they add up. If given the count option, timetrans will convert that number of seconds into
the appropriate number of weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds. The converted result is printed out. Units options cannot be
specified in the same execution as the count option, and vice versa.
timetrans is intended for use with DNSSEC-Tools, for calculating a zone's expiration time.
OPTIONS
Units Options
The converted value of each unit is totaled and a single result printed.
-seconds seconds
Count of seconds to convert to seconds.
-minutes minutes
Count of minutes to convert to seconds.
-hours hours
Count of hours to convert to seconds.
-days days
Count of days to convert to seconds.
-weeks weeks
Count of weeks to convert to seconds.
Count Option
The specified seconds count is converted to the appropriate number of weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds.
-count seconds
Count of seconds to convert to the appropriate set of units.
Other Options
timetrans has the following miscellaneous options.
-Version
Displays the version information for timetrans and the DNSSEC-Tools package.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Converting 5 days into seconds
$(42)> timetrans -days 5
432000
Example 2: Converting 2 weeks into seconds

Example 3: Converting 8 days and 8 hours into seconds

$(47)> timetrans -w 14 -d 4 -h 21 -m 8 -s 8
8888888
Example 6: Converting 720000 seconds into time units
