in thread Date String Conversion?

By your "Save yourself" I was thinking you were going to build the month name-number hash more lazily... 

my %months;
@months{qw( jan feb mar apr may jun jul aug sep oct nov dec )} =
  ( 1 .. 12 );

    Believe it or not, that was my initial draft in one-liner version. But I then decided to write it in a full script, and followed citromatik's style in hash building with a little modification. Don't get me wrong, I do like slices :-) OTOH, I intentionally focused on the input parsing and output printing parts, where citromatik's version seems to suffer from, in efforts and clarity.
