For GNU date, what's wrong with:
with you format also specified? If you lack GNU date, get a copy at a trusted source. Or, you can search here for my time utility tm2tm.c, which does the same sort of things.
Hello, using date, we can easily get today's date
$ date +%y-%m-%d
06-12-08
is it possible for me to get yesterday's date using 'date', if not, is there any quick and easy way to do that?
Thanks! (1 Reply)
I am not using GNU nor BSD. On AIX, how do you return yesterday in the format of i.e. "May 09" with a space.
# `TZ=y380 date +%h""%d`
>> May09
# `TZ=y380 date +%h" "%d`
>> May
I appreciate your help in advance.
