date

DATE(1) 							   User Commands							   DATE(1)

NAME

       date - print or set the system date and time

SYNOPSIS

       date [OPTION]... [+FORMAT]
       date [-u|--utc|--universal] [MMDDhhmm[[CC]YY][.ss]]

DESCRIPTION

       Display the current time in the given FORMAT, or set the system date.

       -d, --date=STRING
	      display time described by STRING, not `now'

       -f, --file=DATEFILE
	      like --date once for each line of DATEFILE

       -ITIMESPEC, --iso-8601[=TIMESPEC]
	      output date/time in ISO 8601 format.  TIMESPEC=`date' for date only, `hours', `minutes', or `seconds' for date and time to the indi-
	      cated precision.	--iso-8601 without TIMESPEC defaults to `date'.

       -r, --reference=FILE
	      display the last modification time of FILE

       -R, --rfc-822
	      output RFC-822 compliant date string

	      print or set Coordinated Universal Time

       --help display this help and exit

       FORMAT controls the output.  The only valid option for the second form specifies Coordinated Universal Time.  Interpreted sequences are:

       %%     a literal %

       %c     locale's date and time (Sat Nov 04 12:02:33 EST 1989)

       %C     century (year divided by 100 and truncated to an integer) [00-99]

       %d     day of month (01..31)

       %D     date (mm/dd/yy)

       %e     day of month, blank padded ( 1..31)

       %F     same as %Y-%m-%d

       %g     the 2-digit year corresponding to the %V week number

       %G     the 4-digit year corresponding to the %V week number

       %l     hour ( 1..12)

       %m     month (01..12)

       %M     minute (00..59)

       %n     a newline

       %N     nanoseconds (000000000..999999999)

       %p     locale's upper case AM or PM indicator (blank in many locales)

       %P     locale's lower case am or pm indicator (blank in many locales)

       %r     time, 12-hour (hh:mm:ss [AP]M)

       %R     time, 24-hour (hh:mm)

       %s     seconds since `00:00:00 1970-01-01 UTC' (a GNU extension)

       %S     second (00..60); the 60 is necessary to accommodate a leap second

       %t     a horizontal tab

       %T     time, 24-hour (hh:mm:ss)

       %u     day of week (1..7);  1 represents Monday

       %U     week number of year with Sunday as first day of week (00..53)

       %V     week number of year with Monday as first day of week (01..53)

       %w     day of week (0..6);  0 represents Sunday

       %Z     time zone (e.g., EDT), or nothing if no time zone is determinable

       By default, date pads numeric fields with zeroes.  GNU date recognizes the following modifiers between `%' and a numeric directive.

	      `-' (hyphen) do not pad the field `_' (underscore) pad the field with spaces

ENVIRONMENT

       TZ     Specifies the timezone, unless overridden by command line parameters.  If neither is specified, the setting from	/etc/localtime	is
	      used.
