Hi,

In perl:

use Time::localtime;

my $TIME = ctime();

 my ($graphret,$xs,$ys) = RRDs::graph $GIF,
        "--vertical-label", "(printed on $TIME)",
        ....
        ....

hth

*speaking for himself



Thanks but I try to do it from a cgi file so I can't put `bin/date` in the
<RRD::GRAPH... section.
It didn't work. I just got of course "`/bin/date`"  in my graph.

The same way you'd print any other text.  RRDtool doesn't generate
it so it should already be generated when you call the script.

Perhaps something like
   ...
    COMMENT:"`/bin/date`"
   ...
will work
