fwiw, I normally initialize localtime() only once at the beginning of=20
the prog, since you get a different result each time you initialize the=20
function (even if only by a couple of milliseconds).

Alternatively, you can use $^T which is the time the script started. It =
doesn't change any time during the script, so you can do it at any time:
@now =3D localtime($^T);
And it saves a keystroke. :)
