Thanks Ravinder and RudiC. It worked fine.

---------- Post updated at 07:11 PM ---------- Previous update was at 06:54 PM ----------

One more question :

Suppose I have a file file1.txt with the below contents :

Code:
a b c e
f g h i j
m y t
EFFECTIVE_TIME 1373938000
l r t o

The second field on Line number 4 is time ( this could be on any row but will always have EFFECTIVE_TIME as first column) which I want to convert into human readable time. So how can we convert this into real time.

Thanks for your help.

DOCKER(1)                                                     General Commands Manual                                                    DOCKER(1)

NAME

       docker - System tray for KDE3/GNOME2 docklet applications

SYNOPSIS

       docker [options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual page documents briefly the docker command.  This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original pro-
       gram does not have a manual page.

       docker is a docking application (WindowMaker dock app) which acts as a system tray for KDE3 and GNOME2. It can be used to replace the panel
       in either environment, allowing you to have a system tray without running the KDE/GNOME panel.

       Docker was written and designed to work with Openbox 2, but it should work fine in any window manager that supports WindowMaker dock apps.

OPTIONS

       -h-help
              Show summary of options.

       -display DISPLAY
              The X display to connect to.

       -border N
              The width of the border to put around the system tray icons. Defaults to 1.

       -vertical
              Line up the icons vertically. Defaults to horizontally.

       -wmaker
              WindowMaker  mode.  This makes docker a fixed size (64x64) to appear nicely in in WindowMaker.  Note: In this mode, you have a fixed
              number of icons that docker can hold.

       -iconsize SIZE
              The size (width and height and height) to display icons as in the system tray. Defaults to 24.

       -color COLOR
              The background color to use for the tray. Defaults to whatever color the window manager specifies.
