timestamp.js

As a coder, you dealing with UNIX timestamps everyday.

Sometime you need the current timestamp, and you have to run a short program like this:

<?php echo time(); ?>

Sometime you want to figure out the exact time hide after the unreadable numbers 1361525534, and you have to run a short program like this:

<?php echo date( 'Y-m-d G:i:s', 1361525534 ); ?>

With Timestamp.js, you can just open a terminal and try this below:

$ ts
1361525534

$ ts 1361525866
2013-2-22 17:37:46

PS: I believe you have a shortcut key to open it, don't you?
