What it is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time One way to translate it to a human readable form is this: $ python -c "import time; print time.ctime(1161911504)" Not sure if there are console apps that can do this. It's not very common to work with timestamps in the console afaik :) -- [email protected] mailing list
