to help lowly newbies with the "date" command in bash.
please include 1 example that shows the '+' character in front of the format string. It winds up taking a lot of looking to figure out this simple syntax.
Thanks

Here are two: $ date +'%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S %z' # %z is a GNU extension. 2004-02-29 16:21:42 -0800 $ date +'@%s.%N' # %s and %N are GNU extensions. @1078100502.692722128
