Re^2: Directory creation with current Date

What part of I am working on win2000. did you miss? Last I heard, neither the `date` "binary" nor the `awk` "binary" were available on any non *nix system. In fact, Perl runs on more systems where those are not available than where they are.

In summary, you should both read the question and provide answers that aren't system-dependent. POSIX is an excellent option, as is localtime(time) one. Yours ... not so good.

Being right, does not endow the right to be rude; politeness costs nothing.
Being unknowing, is not the same as being stupid.
Expressing a contrary opinion, whether to the individual or the group, is more often a sign of deeper thought than of cantankerous belligerence.
Do not mistake your goals as the only goals; your opinion as the only opinion; your confidence as correctness. Saying you know better is not the same as explaining you know better.
