alias date to date +%Y-%m-%d I suppose.

In reality how difficult it is for you to transition to using the international standard for representing times depends on how much software you have that you need to migrate to it and how difficult interoperability will be with systems you don't control.


If UNIX, BSDs, Sun, Apple, Microsoft, etc. all agreed to represent times using the standard, and rewrite all config files to use that notation, whatsoever... ?

"What's a 'config file', which department thought that one up, and what
is marketing doing to get ready for its release?

And, are you actually discussing this before we get a patent?"
