As part of sending an OAuth request to connect to Twitter, I have to get a timestamp, as the number of seconds elapsed from Jan 01, 1970 (AKA the UNIX epoch). The simplest solution I could come with is the following: Remember you can do arithmetic with durations. I think this is even simpler: T:\ftemp>xslt2 florent.xsl florent.xsl
