Does anyone know how to "read" the plaintext dates in NZBs? For example:
...is displayed as GMT 4:14:55 Thursday 2011.01.20 in a newsreader. :blink:Code:date="1295496895"

It's Unix time. It represents the amount of seconds that have passed since the midnight of January 1, 1970, without counting leap seconds.
Wow, thanks - I didn't know that. I tested it with a calculator and it works :D
41 years
19 days (29 - 10 [There have been 10 leap years since 1970])
4 hours
14 minutes
55 seconds

Switching to a 64-bit integer before that date would pretty much solve the problem for a long time :)
:wacko:
