Dear Sirs.
When I substract minutes or hours in the date program, I got
an incorrect result, if I define first the date and later the time.
sismo20# /usr/local/bin/date --date="07/13/2000 01:00:00 -5 hours"
Wed Jul 12 21:05:00 CDT 2000
But I got the right result if I define first the time and later the
date.
sismo20# /usr/local/bin/date --date="01:00:00 07/13/2000 -5 hours"
Wed Jul 12 20:00:00 CDT 2000
By the way, the date program it is extremely useful for me.
thanks a lot.
Jesus
