Yeah, that's it. Getting "Can't parse" errors. Weird. Here's a typical line: `Can't parse: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15264 2008- +01-03 12:46 out` [download] Thanks, man. $PM = "Perl Monk's"; $MCF = "Most Clueless ~~Friar~~ ~~Abbot~~ ~~Bishop~~ ~~Pontiff~~ Deacon"; $nysus = $PM . $MCF; Click here if you love Perl Monks	[reply] [d/l]

On my linux box, I can get such a listing via `ls -l --time-style=long-iso`, which in particular produces the `2008-01-03` date formatting. Do you have an alias for `ls` that includes a `--time-style` option?	[reply]

That date format looks odd... Without digging into the File::Listing code, I'd guess that's where it's choking.	[reply]

Here's what worked for me: $listing = `ls -l --time-style=locale`; [download] Thanks to everyone who chipped in to help me.
