Maybe it's just a my opinion, but I think we are talking about two distinctly different pieces of functionality: (1) pretty-printing a given time via at-style-time specs... <RRD::TIMESTR 'some-strftime-format' 'some-at-style-time'> vaguely like GNU 'date --date "some-gnu-date-style-time"' (2) pretty printing the last update of a given RRD... <RRD::LAST 'some.rrd' 'some-strftime-format'> very much like 'rrdtool last some.rrd'. Okay? I don't really care about (1) but I need (2) before I can migrate from MRTG to my RRDtool interface. Just a thought: what about going with <RRD::TIME::TIMESTR> and <RRD::TIME::LAST> or somesuch? later steve - - - systems guy wiscnet.net -- * To unsubscribe from the rrd-developers mailing list, send a message with the subject: unsubscribe to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
