In a perl script i need to load a variable ($CurrentTime) with the systems current time. Normally I would consult with my reference books but am not able to get to them. I find myself using them when I need to work in perl which is not very often... I'm looking for time_stamp something like "07/17/98 14:42:09" for a requirement that has surfaced. I thought maybe something like:
$CurrentTime=exec`date "+%D %T"`; print $CurrentTime; Hope that jibberish above made sense :-/ Oh yeah... The perl version is rather old (v. 4.0.1.8). upgrading is not an option for those solutions requiring version 5.x. Thanks for any help.
