not on linux or solaris :( :
linux:
jpburton@wave: [10:51] [~]> date -r 1017708708
date: 1017708708: No such file or directory
solaris:
jpburton@blade: [10:52] [~]> date -r 1017708708
date: illegal option -- r
usage: date [-u] mmddHHMM[[cc]yy][.SS]
date [-u] [+format]
date -a [-]sss[.fff]
that seems to be a bsd option (very frustrating at times too!).. :(
