=\ dont see much point in a whole module for that, maybe if there was other stuff but i made a simple commands with just a couple of lines =/

Code:
<br />sub convertsec<br />{ <br />    my ($bot,$self, $user, $name, $msg, $color) = @_;<br /><br />if ($msg =~ /[^0-9]/) {<br />   return "[error]It has to be an amount of seconds!";<br />}<br />   <br />   else{<br />   my ($hours,$days,$seconds,$mins,$years) = 0;<br />   $hours = int($msg / 3600);<br />  $days = int($hours / 24);<br />  $hours = $hours % 24;<br />   $seconds = $msg % 3600;<br />  $mins = int($seconds / 60);  <br />  $seconds = $seconds % 60;<br />     $years = int($days / 365);<br />     $days = $days % 365;<br />  <br />  return "There is $years Years,$days Days, $hours Hours, $mins Minutes, $seconds Seconds until $msg Seconds...";<br />   }<br />   }<br />



Plus, doesntn it print 112 ='s?
that would be extremely annoying..... Wink

Basic, it prints this:

Code:
========================================================<br />   Time::Convert (Version: $VERSION) - Matthew Fenton 2005<br />========================================================


So it prints three whole lines all together. That's only two more than the MSN module does (and if they follow the pattern with the Yahoo module, those two together would print 2 lines Surprised ).

Although the module really could do without it, you're supposed to just have a version function to get the version. Razz Very few other modules print things on startup.

In fact the only reason MSN.pm prints it is for debuging. Often people post the output, if the module prints its version then it is easy to see what they are using.

I don't really see any point in this code. First, it's not a module, it's a command. Second, it's tied to text input and text output from a bot, so it doesn't fit the concept of a self-contained module. Third, it expects someone to type in some time in seconds?! Hmm. Finally, there are dozens of modules on CPAN that work with time, date, duration and such. Why not use one of those?

I thought I told you that before. Razz

Yeah... and to find out when epoch time started, do localtime(0). Razz localtime assumes the current time(), although some people put it in anyway like localtime(time).
