DATE(1)

NAME
date, clock - date and time

SYNOPSIS
date [ option ] [ seconds ]
clock

DESCRIPTION
Print the date, in the format

    Tue Aug 16 17:03:52 CDT 1977

The options are

-u  Report Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) rather than local time.

-n  Report the date as the number of seconds since the epoch, 00:00:00 GMT, January 1, 1970.

The conversion from Greenwich Mean Time to local time depends on the $timezone environment variable; see ctime(3).

If the optional argument seconds is present, it is used as the time to convert rather than the real time.

Clock draws a simple analog clock in its window.
