Converting Unix epoch format to normal date for filePro

[Fairlight]

The honourable and venerable Larry Hoover spoke thus:

Is perl installed?

perl -e 'print(scalar(localtime($ARGV[0])));' 1240432776

Perl can be had via Skunkware prior to 5.0.6.  From 5.0.6 forward, it's
installed as part of the OS install (assuming it wasn't deselected
somehow).
