day of the week

Could anyone kindly help me figure out how to add the day of the week to
David Spelts' Traffic Log "Hits By Day"?

I tried the following and could not implement any properly. I am a perl
newbie and would appreciate any help. I imagine this is simple for a perl
guru:

#$dayofweek = Date_DayOfWeek($month,$day,$year);
#my $date = ParseDateString("15 mar 1999");
$date = substr($key,0,6);
print UnixDate($date, "%a");
#$dayofweek = UnixDate($date, "%A");

#my $dt = DateTime->new(year => $year, month => $month, day => $day);
#my $dow = $dt->day_of_week();

#use Date::Calc; # you need this to calculate your date
#my $a = Date::Calc::Date_to_Text(2005, 12, 15);

I am using a Linux server with perl ver 5.8.7

all files required to run the script can be found here:

I responded to your identical post on comp.lang.perl. Please do not
multipost. Cross-post instead. If you don't know the difference, you
would do well to find out before posting again.

Thanks.

So you consider rudeness funny?

OK, I guess I won't be answering your question then...

even more laughs...

I didn't realize they had computers in W. Virginia. Did you trade your banjo
in for a used 386mhz?

Thank you for not posting your "answer", it probably would have been a worse
"solution" than Jimbo's. Besides, I already solved it myself with online
manuals.

I hope you two ng trolls are not a true sampling of the quality of people
that frequent this ng.
