Just use Perl! Or more specifically...
use Date::Manip;

Take a look at the docs (should be installed by default on all good 
distros :) ): man Date::Manip or perldoc Date::Manip or online at 
http://search.cpan.org/~sbeck/Date-Manip-5.48/Manip.pod

As it happens, I've been playing with Date::Manip -- I'll have something by 
Thurs.

Regards,
Michael Erskine.
