This is not a port, its part of the RELEASE! Its several YEARS old, and doesn't work right - you get lots of STEP changes instead of what you SHOULD get, which is a slew on the system clock. The new code (which has a current release date of this month) DOES appear to work correctly (I'm still v

date(1) and -v-1m

1999-12-31 Thread Alexander Langer
Hello! The behaviour of date(1) is probably specified by POSIX, but I think, date -v-1m should at least return a date a month _before_ the current month. Example: Mi 1 Dez 1999 15:06:47 CET (Dez. has 31, so it should be Nov 30, I think). More confusing is something like: alex:~ $ date -v-1m
