NAME

       sdate - never ending September date

SYNOPSIS

       sdate [-e|--epoch yyyy-mm] [-l|--lib library] [--] [command]

DESCRIPTION

       sdate  runs a command in an environment wherein it wraps the libc localtime() and gmtime()
       calls such that the program will use the eternal September date.   The  wrapper  functions
       are  in  a  shared  library  /usr/lib/libsdate/libsdate.so*  which  is  loaded through the
       LD_PRELOAD mechanism of the dynamic loader. (See ld.so(8))

OPTIONS

       -e yyyy-mm, --epoch yyyy-mm
              Specify an alternative epoch, default is 1993-09.

       -l library, --lib library
              Specify an alternative wrapper library.

       [--] command
              Any command you want to be ran. Use ‘--’ if in the command you have  other  options
              that may confuse sdate's option parsing.

       -h     Display help.

       -v     Display version.

FILES

       /usr/lib/libsdate/* The shared library containing the wrapper functions.

ENVIRONMENT

       LD_PRELOAD

LIMITATIONS

       Library versions
              Every command executed within sdate needs to be linked to the same version of the C
              library as sdate itself.
