[rrd-users] Re: probelms with timestamp

[Patrick Ammann]

hi again,


thnx for all your help. the problem could be solved.

i just post how I did it. Prehaps it will also help some other maillist 
members.

my $slastupdate = scalar localtime(RRDs::last $sRRDfile);
          $slastupdate =~ /(\d{1,2}\:\d{1,2}\:\d{1,2})/;
          $slastupdate=$1;

'COMMENT:Last update: '.$slastupdate .' \\r',

Just a little other question. Is there a documentation on the different
possibilities to format the text in the png files ?

geetings,
patrick
