Hello,

Thank you for all of your responses.

I received earlier a private answer from another member of list. He
told me to use  the '-' sign after '%' in the date pattern of date(1)
command:

$ date +%-m%-d%Y

This one seems to not include leading zeros and I reworked it to

$ date +%-m-%-d-%Y

to fit my needs :)


Regards
Rambius
