NAME
datefudge - pretend the system time is different
SYNOPSIS
datefudge [-s|--static] at_date program [arguments ...]
DESCRIPTION
datefudge is a small utility that pretends that the system time is different by pre-
loading a small library which modifies the time(2), gettimeofday(2) and clock_gettime(2)
system calls.
DATE FORMAT
The at_date argument can be given in any format accepted by the date(1) program, for
example "2007-04-01 12:21" or "yesterday", or "next Friday".
OPTIONS
--static, -s
Mark the date as a `static' one. The above mentioned system calls will always
return the date given in the at_date argument, regardless of time passing. See
EXAMPLES
below.
--help, -h
Print short usage information and exit.
--version, -v
Print version information and exit.

Basic examples:
$ datefudge "2007-04-01 10:23" date -R
