If you have gawk or nawk:

Code:
gawk -v FS="," 'BEGIN { REF=systime() - (30 * 24 * 60 * 60); }
{
        # Split DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS into DD MM YYYY HH MM SS
        split($4, a, " ");
        split(a[1], da, "/");
        split(a[2], ta, ":");
        # add seconds if missing
        if(!ta[3]) ta[3]="00";
        # paste into YYYY MM DD HH MM SS and make timestamp
        t=mktime(da[3] " " da[2] " " da[1] " " ta[1] " " ta[2] " " ta[3]);
# Only print when t is newer than 30 days ago
}       (t>REF)' < input > output

IGAWK(1)							 Utility Commands							  IGAWK(1)

NAME

       igawk - gawk with include files

SYNOPSIS

       igawk [ all gawk options ] -f program-file [ -- ] file ...
       igawk [ all gawk options ] [ -- ] program-text file ...

DESCRIPTION

       Igawk is a simple shell script that adds the ability to have ``include files'' to gawk(1).

       AWK programs for igawk are the same as for gawk, except that, in addition, you may have lines like

	      @include getopt.awk

       in your program to include the file getopt.awk from either the current directory or one of the other directories in the search path.

OPTIONS

       See gawk(1) for a full description of the AWK language and the options that gawk supports.

EXAMPLES

       cat << EOF > test.awk
       @include getopt.awk

       BEGIN {
	    while (getopt(ARGC, ARGV, "am:q") != -1)
		 ...
       }
       EOF

       igawk -f test.awk
