Hi,
I have a file which contains a set of time data as follows
16:37:45
15:45:52
13:48:20
00:20:23
i need to find the time difference with the present time.
Can anyone put some !dea ?
Thanks in advance

The date command from the ast-open package has a '-E' (for elapsed)
option that does what you want.
