Hey Johan!
Okay I played with the POSIX module and found this gem,
strftime "%H %M", gmtime;
which produces the hour and minute of UTC wrt localtime. If localtime is
UTC then it produces the exact same hour as,
strftime "%H %M", localtime;
but if localtime is anything else, such as PST which is what the machine I
tested this on is set to, then gmtime adjusts the hour (and whatever other
variable that requires adjustment) to UTC. Works excellent! I like it!
Yeppers, the POSIX module is a handy, dandy tool to have onboard. I think
it's a keeper.
Life is good,
Maurice
