Of course, since it's not in the standard, every implementation does it
a little differently, e.g., in Elk:

	> (unix-time->string (unix-time))
	"Tue Nov 16 19:36:13 1999\n"
	> 

or if you prefer a structured record:

	> (let ((t (unix-decode-localtime (unix-time))))
	    (list (time-year t) (time-month t) (time-day-of-month t)
		  (time-hours t) (time-minutes t) (time-seconds t)
		  (time-weekday t)
		  (time-dst t)))
	(99 10 16 19 36 13 2 0)
