Re: date/time parsing
We have three generalized data/time routines here at CMU which might
do what you want:
pdate - takes a general date/time string (ctime as well as most
other common formats) and using a YACC grammar parses it
into a tm structure.
gtime - takes a tm structure and generates the corresponding
32-bit time (inverse of localtime)
atot - takes a date/time string and returns the corresponding
32-bit time using the above routines.
You're welcome to them if you like.
