a simple way of converting a date in seconds to normal date

UNIX HP-UX

Hi all!

I'm working on a HPUX system, and I was wondering if there is a simple way to convert a date from seconds (since 1970) to a normal date.

Thanks

Pretty easy with perl:
$ perl -e 'print scalar localtime(shift),"\n"' 1164876000

Even if you have not installed a recent version of perl, HP-UX should have an old version in /usr/contrib/bin that is good enough for this.
