XAGO is a System V command to display formatted date/time strings for
Xtimes in the past or future. I needed to do this and couldn't find
Xanything out there, so voila!
X
XYou will need getopt(3C) to parse the command line. If this isn't
Xin your standard C library, get one of the PD versions and link it in.

X.SH NAME
X\fBago\fR \- display date for times in the past or future
X.SH USAGE
X.B ago
X.B [-s secs]
X.B [-m mins]
X.B [-h hrs]
X.B [-d days]
X.B [-w wks]
X.B [+fmt]
X.SH DESCRIPTION
XThe
X.I ago
Xcommand is an extension to date(1) that displays a formatted date/time
Xstring for a moment in the past or future, specified in seconds, minutes,
Xhours, days and/or weeks relative to now.
X.I ago
Xaccepts the same format string as date(1).
X.sp
XWith no parameters specified,
Xor with only
X.I +fmt
Xspecified,
X.I ago
Xbehaves exactly like date(1).
XIf any of
X.I \-s \-m \-h \-d \-w
Xare specified,
X.I ago
X.B subtracts
Xthe argument values from the current time before display.
X(Specifying negative arguments will
X.B add
Xthe values to the current time, i.e., point into the future.)
X.sp
XFor further details on the format string, see date(1).
