135 Display the current time in the given FORMAT, or set the system date.\n\

141 -d, --date=STRING display time described by STRING, not 'now'\n\
144 --debug annotate the parsed date,\n\
145 and warn about questionable usage to stderr\n\
148 -f, --file=DATEFILE like --date; once for each line of DATEFILE\n\
151 -I[FMT], --iso-8601[=FMT] output date/time in ISO 8601 format.\n\
152 FMT='date' for date only (the default),\n\
153 'hours', 'minutes', 'seconds', or 'ns'\n\
154 for date and time to the indicated precision.\n\
155 Example: 2006-08-14T02:34:56-06:00\n\
158 -R, --rfc-2822 output date and time in RFC 2822 format.\n\
159 Example: Mon, 14 Aug 2006 02:34:56 -0600\n\
162 --rfc-3339=FMT output date/time in RFC 3339 format.\n\
163 FMT='date', 'seconds', or 'ns'\n\
164 for date and time to the indicated precision.\n\
165 Example: 2006-08-14 02:34:56-06:00\n\
168 -r, --reference=FILE display the last modification time of FILE\n\
171 -s, --set=STRING set time described by STRING\n\
172 -u, --utc, --universal print or set Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)\n\

178 FORMAT controls the output. Interpreted sequences are:\n\

185 %b locale's abbreviated month name (e.g., Jan)\n\
186 %B locale's full month name (e.g., January)\n\
187 %c locale's date and time (e.g., Thu Mar 3 23:05:25 2005)\n\
190 %C century; like %Y, except omit last two digits (e.g., 20)\n\
191 %d day of month (e.g., 01)\n\
192 %D date; same as %m/%d/%y\n\
193 %e day of month, space padded; same as %_d\n\
196 %F full date; same as %Y-%m-%d\n\
197 %g last two digits of year of ISO week number (see %G)\n\
198 %G year of ISO week number (see %V); normally useful only with %V\n\
204 %j day of year (001..366)\n\
207 %k hour, space padded ( 0..23); same as %_H\n\
208 %l hour, space padded ( 1..12); same as %_I\n\
210 %M minute (00..59)\n\
214 %N nanoseconds (000000000..999999999)\n\
215 %p locale's equivalent of either AM or PM; blank if not known\n\
216 %P like %p, but lower case\n\
217 %q quarter of year (1..4)\n\
218 %r locale's 12-hour clock time (e.g., 11:11:04 PM)\n\
219 %R 24-hour hour and minute; same as %H:%M\n\
220 %s seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC\n\
223 %S second (00..60)\n\
225 %T time; same as %H:%M:%S\n\
226 %u day of week (1..7); 1 is Monday\n\
229 %U week number of year, with Sunday as first day of week (00..53)\n\
230 %V ISO week number, with Monday as first day of week (01..53)\n\
231 %w day of week (0..6); 0 is Sunday\n\
232 %W week number of year, with Monday as first day of week (00..53)\n\
235 %x locale's date representation (e.g., 12/31/99)\n\
236 %X locale's time representation (e.g., 23:13:48)\n\
237 %y last two digits of year (00..99)\n\
241 %z +hhmm numeric time zone (e.g., -0400)\n\
242 %:z +hh:mm numeric time zone (e.g., -04:00)\n\
243 %::z +hh:mm:ss numeric time zone (e.g., -04:00:00)\n\
244 %:::z numeric time zone with : to necessary precision (e.g., -04, +05:30)\n\
245 %Z alphabetic time zone abbreviation (e.g., EDT)\n\
247 By default, date pads numeric fields with zeroes.\n\
250 The following optional flags may follow '%':\n\
252 - (hyphen) do not pad the field\n\
253 _ (underscore) pad with spaces\n\
254 0 (zero) pad with zeros\n\
255 ^ use upper case if possible\n\
256 # use opposite case if possible\n\
260 After any flags comes an optional field width, as a decimal number;\n\
261 then an optional modifier, which is either\n\
262 E to use the locale's alternate representations if available, or\n\
263 O to use the locale's alternate numeric symbols if available.\n\
