How can I convert seconds to date
Hi all,
I'm wondering if there's an option in the linux command date that will allow me to convert seconds (since 1/1/1970) to a readable format. I know I can do this easily in FreeBSD, with option -r but I just couldn't find out the equivalent option or command in linux. Anyone got an idea?
Regards,

Disapointing to see a response like this. This is a linux answers forum, so suggesting people "google it" is not at all helpful. This forum was the #1 search result on google, for those search terms.
After searching more helpful forums, I found the answer:
date -d @1187769064
Enjoy
