sdate

sdate(1)							   Debian manual							  sdate(1)

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.
