I've noticed that months with 31 days do not properly figure out the previous month: % date --date "05/31/2000 1 month ago" Mon May 1 00:00:00 EDT 2000 It appears to just subtract 30 days and give back a result. Any month having 31 days appears to do this. Any suggestions (besides writing code to figure out what the current day is) or is this is a bug to be resolved? -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aaron Holtz ComNet Inc.
