Encyclopedia > Date (Unix)
The title given to this article is incorrect due to technical limitations. The correct title is date.

date is a Unix command that displays the current time and date of the system.


The date command in GNU is a part of coreutils and is written by David MacKenzie.


For example, to display the current date and time you type:

 % date 

The response would be, e.g.,:

 wed sep 8 15:38:06 CEST 2004 

To set the current date and time to September 8, 2004 01:22 you type:

 % date --set="20040908 01:22" 

The response would be:

 wed sep 8 01:22:00 CEST 2004

Date arithmetic is simpler to perform in the so-called Julian date format.
This is not a date in the Julian calendar; rather it's a date expressed as a year followed by a 3-digit number representative of the ordinal number of the day in the year.
Conversely, a date containing a year, a 2-digit month and a 2-digit year is sometimes called Gregorian, even though both dates are in the Gregorian calendar.
