The nine element array created by localtime, for example, can be concatenated or printed in any order. The date value requires + 1900 to get the year, and the month is zero-based and requires +1 to get the month number.
Here are examples, and POSIX::strftime examples for perl:
localtime - perldoc.perl.org
And C strftime (same as perl) for a list of "possibilities" for date formats:
strftime

Hi Everyone,
$tmp="20090620231013";
$tmp = substr($tmp,0,8)." ".substr($tmp,8,2).":".substr($tmp,10,2).":".substr($tmp,12,2);
So my output is:
20090620 23:10:13.
I only can think substr is easy, any perl can do this just one line very simple efficient one? :eek:
