in reply to Formatting date strings (was: date +%Y%m%d)

How about this: 

> perl -MDate::Manip -e 'Date_Init("TZ=CET", "DateFormat=non-Us"); pri
+nt UnixDate(ParseDate(shift), "%Y%m%d")' 20.03.2001
20010320

(Note conversion of German date input style to ISO style)

You might also want to have a look at create file with current date for name.
