NAME

6       timetrans - Converts time into time
7

SYNOPSIS

9         timetrans [units-options] [-count]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       timetrans converts time from one type of unit to another.  If any of
13       the units options are specified, then timetrans will convert those time
14       units into the number of seconds to which they add up.  If given the
15       count option, timetrans will convert that number of seconds into the
16       appropriate number of weeks, days, hours, minutes, and seconds.  The
17       converted result is printed out.  Units options cannot be specified in
18       the same execution as the count option, and vice versa.
19
20       timetrans is intended for use with DNSSEC-Tools, for calculating a
21       zone's expiration time.
