Thanks Orly. I made a dirty script:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
#
$now = time();
($seconds,$minutes,$hour,$monthday,$month,
$year,$weekday,$yearday,$dst_flag) = localtime( $now );
$year = $year + 1900;
$month_name = (Jan,Feb,Mar,Apr,May,Jun,Jul,Aug,Sep,Oct,Nov,Dec)[$month];
print "$month_name $monthday $year\n";

when localtime() returns a scalar, you can't control how the output
"looks" hence
print POSIX::strftime("%blah", localtime($my_time))
is more flexible.
Update 'to hah, Mr FrancisV.. na-typo ko yung earlier mail ko. It's
strftime not sprintf =)
