TCL clock scan
the below shown clock manipulation works well in Linux machine which has TCL 8.5. But when i use the same on the SunOS which has the TCL8.4 , I am getting the error "bad switch "-format": must be -base or -gmt".
For some reason, I am not able to upgrade my TCL 8.4 to 8.5 in SunOS.
Can anyone please help, how can I make it work in TCL 8.4 as well?????
The Commands are given below and what I am trying to achieve through these commands is to advance the system date by one more day.
$today contains the value "2012 06 15 14 39 20"
set today [clock scan $today -format "%Y %m %d %H %M %S"]
set tomorrow [clock add $today 86600 seconds]
set victim [clock format $tomorrow -format "%a"]
set tomorrow [clock format $tomorrow -format "%m%d%H%M"]
send "sudo date $tomorrow\r"
Thanks

weather::com::forecast
Weather::Com::Forecast(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Weather::Com::Forecast(3pm)
NAME
Weather::Com::Forecast - class representing all available weather forecasts for one location
SYNOPSIS
[...]
my @locations = $weather_finder->find('Heidelberg');
my $forecast = $locations[0]->forecast();
my $tomorrow = $forecast->day(1);
print "Forecast for tomorrow:
";
print " - tomorrow it's the ", $tomorrow->date()->date(), "
";
print " - sunrise will be at ", $tomorrow->sunrise()->time(), "
";
print " - maximum temperature will be ", $tomorrow->high(), "
";
DESCRIPTION
Using Weather::Com::Forecast objects is the way to access weather forecast information for one specific location (city) and 0 (today) to 9
days in the future.
Each time you call the Weather::Com::Location objects' "forecast()" method, you'll get an updated Weather::Com::Forecast object. This
object is used to access the 10 Weather::Com::DayForecast objects containing the actual data.
CONSTRUCTOR
new(hash or hashref)
You usually would not construct an object of this class yourself. This is implicitely done when you call the "forecast()" method of a
Weather::Com::Location object.
METHODS
all()
Returns an arrayref of all Weather::Com::DayForecast objects if called in scalar context, an array if called in list context.
day(day number)
Returns the Weather::Com::DayForecast object that corresponds to the day number you provided.
The day number can be any number between 0 and 9.
Day 0 is usually today. Due to a bug (I think it is one) in the weather.com XOAP API, you may get the full forecast data of yesterday if
you call for day 0 just after midnight. I think this may have do something with the timezone. I have not fully investigated this issue,
yet. Please contact me, if you have!
