Open the help file (1.38e), read it -- and here you're done. 
Another possibility is going to www.perl.com --- they have a set 
of links pointing to regexp manuals there...

obviously I have already grabbed another version and it works...after
some mods(g). Maybe we should collect the working ones together and
supply them as demo for the help file.
Different ways of doing the same thing is a good way to see what
differences are in result.

I thought about the same thing. You have to add characters "(GMT+"
asnd so on, into the output. I am not familiar with RegExp, and I
would have to play around. I don't know the answer yet, but I'm sure
it's possible.

I just use the time as per header, and the name will be according to
your macro: %OFromName, %OFromList, etc.

That's correct. I think you have to "learn" it like any other
programming or scripting language.
