NAME
sdate - never ending September date SYNOPSIS
sdate [-e|--epoch yyyy-mm] [-l|--lib library] [--] [command] DESCRIPTION
sdate runs a command in an environment wherein it wraps the libc localtime() and gmtime() calls such that the program will use the eternal September date. The wrapper functions are in a shared library /usr/lib/libsdate/libsdate.so* which is loaded through the LD_PRELOAD mecha- nism of the dynamic loader. (See ld.so(8)) OPTIONS
-e yyyy-mm, --epoch yyyy-mm Specify an alternative epoch, default is 1993-09. -l library, --lib library Specify an alternative wrapper library. [--] command Any command you want to be ran. Use '--' if in the command you have other options that may confuse sdate's option parsing. -h Display help. -v Display version. FILES
/usr/lib/libsdate/* The shared library containing the wrapper functions. ENVIRONMENT
LD_PRELOAD LIMITATIONS
Library versions Every command executed within sdate needs to be linked to the same version of the C library as sdate itself. SEE ALSO
