Re: Pike Cookbook

got anything for that yet?

everytime i spend considerably more time researching how to solve something, then the length of the solution should warant, then the solution deserves to be written down somehwere:

problem: turn time() into an SMTP Date: string

solution: Calendar.now()->format_smtp();

this one was easy, but i actually needed to make a function string get_time(int t); that would take time as an argument.

solution:

string get_time(int t) { return Calendar.Second(t)->format_smtp(); }

now this one took considerably longer to find. as it is absolutely not clear that Second is the only class to take unix time as an argument. (or is it?)

are there other solutions?
