Hi,
I found a bug with `date' command.
If I designated "--iso-8601" option with "seconds" parameter,
date command worked normally.
I, however, designated "-I" option with same parameter,
date command did not work, and complained. For example:
-----------------------
gotom@toro:~/debian/sample/shellutils/shellutils-2.0> date --iso-8601
2000-02-28
gotom@toro:~/debian/sample/shellutils/shellutils-2.0> date -I
2000-02-28
gotom@toro:~/debian/sample/shellutils/shellutils-2.0> date --iso-8601=seconds
2000-02-28T07:47:15+0900
gotom@toro:~/debian/sample/shellutils/shellutils-2.0> date -I seconds
date: invalid date `seconds'
gotom@toro:~/debian/sample/shellutils/shellutils-2.0> date -I=seconds
date: invalid argument `=seconds' for `--iso-8601'
Valid arguments are:
- `date'
- `hours'
- `minutes'
- `seconds'
Try `date --help' for more information.
-----------------------
"date -I seconds" did not work as same as "date --iso-8601=seconds".
Now, the simple patch to fix this problem:
