To be more specific, in bash
TMRW_DATE=`date --date="$DATE" +"%s"`
where 'date --date' is converting the string $DATE into its epoch time (in sec) but in ksh there is no such option with date.
As another limitation I can't download ksh93 or any higher version.I'm currently having ksh88 installed in HPUX machine .If its not possible in ksh script then can i accomplish it using any perl script?
