Hi,
I need to subtract 5 minutes from the date. Example
$date +"%Y-%m-%d-%H.%M.%S" displays 2014-06-26-06.06.38
I want to show it as 2014-06-26-06.01.38 (5 mins are subtracted from date)
Any help would be appreciated. I am currently on AIX version 6.1

Hi Folks,
I have a text file that has only time in the format HH:MM:SS like seen below.

Thanks
