So if you do not want to use my KUAL add-in and would rather re-invent that wheel ...
Just read the script for yourself, I have it released as an Open Source posting.
PS: in case you are not familiar with the man(ual) command in Linux and other *nix type systems, it is not limited to the 'date' example I posted. You really don't need us to copy the information down for you.
If you do not have a full Linux system, but only a cut-down embedded version, your favorite web search engine can find you copies of the manual pages.
It was one of the first things ever added to web search engines.
