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.

                       - Mike
