Re: Best way to print out a particular date-time format (very specific)

Since no-one has mentioned it, there's also

system("date +%d%b%y:%H:%M:%S");
[download]

Of course, I like the Date::Manip solution more.

Of course, I like the Date::Manip solution more. Well, I don't know about favourites, but japhy's use of POSIX would fall into a more 'fit for purpose' answer IMHO. There is a section in Date::Manip's documentation labelled should I use Date::Manip - which I think is quite a frank section for an author to include. -=( Graq )=-	[reply]
