in thread Quickie Alarm Clock

(ps. the output from localtime doesn't have any ':'s? (in my version anyway))
Really? In list context, (my version is AS 5.6.1 build 633) I get:

perl -e "print localtime" 3481710810222521

In scalar context, however, I get:

perl -e "print scalar localtime" Tue Sep 10 17:48:09 2002 ^ ^

I'm guessing that you are in the UK (aren't I a bright boy ;) - my locale (US) won't make a difference here

    Locales don't matter for the format of localtime's scalar value. For great justice.
