I was trying to form a similar solution but found it didn't work for Sept.
2001
on HP-UX. Your solution returns "29" on HP-UX Does it work on your UNIX
flavor?

Well, you can do date functions in Unix. The date function is date. It's
not normal, because Unix Commands are supposed to be cryptic.
But, you could do the following. You'll want to test it because no to Unii
are the same...
cal|tail -2|head -1|awk '{print $NF}' (last day of current month)
cal 2 2001|tail -2|head -1|awk '{print $NF}' (last day of February 2001)
HTH,
Bambi.

Check the Date::Manip package. The simplest way is to check
for
UnixDate( 'tommorrow', '%d') == 1 ? 'last day of month', 'not last day';
