/usr/local/bin> xsecs=$(get_epoch_secs)
/usr/local/bin> thedate=$(get_date_from_secs $((xsecs-3900)))
/usr/local/bin> echo $thedate
02220942 02 22 09 42 08


Your return is giving me 02220942 02 22 09 42 08

the touch is create the file and these as directories "02 22 09 42 08"

I only want it to return 65 minutes ago, i.e 02220942

then the touch is $touch 02220942 file_name
not $touch 02220942 02 22 09 42 08 file_name

I am trying to change the return, but how do I get rid of the " 02 22 09 42 08"?

I got it by changing this :


printf("%02d%02d%02d%02d\n", rettm->tm_mon+1, rettm->tm_mday, rettm->tm_hour, rettm->tm_min);
strftime(timebuf, sizeof(timebuf),"%m %d %H %M %S", rettm);
/*printf("%s\n", timebuf); */



Don't ask me what I did!


thanks!!!
