Re: Not quite the end of the month....

But why would you complicate the task with perl, when you can complicate it just as much with bash?

Because it wasn't a bash script. Our site standard is ksh with a smattering of grandfathered sh.

I Googled for a solution that would work on our O/S/shell and found nowt. Since I'm reasonably fluent in perl this was a "three refinements of the search, then do actual useful work" use case.
