Re: Is there a shorter way to create a german time string?

How about:

use Date::Manip;
$ENV{TZ}="CET";
&Date_Init( "Language=German" );
print &UnixDate( "heute", "%A, den %m. %B %Y um %H:%M Uhr" );

This is very concise. And if I had to do more date-parsing than just for this one string I would install Date::Manip. But as the review states: this module might be an overkill. So for now I'll be using my lengthy sub. Thank you anyway for leading my attention to a module I hadn't known before. neophyte	[reply]
