Difference between two dates

Shell Programming and Scripting

Hi!

I have two parameters like this: YYYY-MM-DD YYYY-MM-DD
My question is, there is a direct command for get the elapsed time between the 2 dates, or I have to find another way?

Thx!

No, there's no 'direct' command, but there're 'indirect' alternatives - take a look at the FAQ
