You could whip one up yourself using Date::Manip. See http://search.cpan.org/~sbeck/Date-Manip-5.48/Manip.pod and look at ParseDate( ) in particular. You can use it to parse a wide range of date formats into something easy to crunch (you may also appreciate unixdate( ) from the same package). Then, use your favorite conditional logic tom-fooleration method to figure out whether the date is today's, yesterdays, tomorrows, or some other date (use localtime() with no arguments to get today's date and time... there is certainly another way, and probably a better one to do that..) and return whatevah you want. So fun! So easy! So custom! Now if I could just learn to make my own shirts...

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
