          You might do something like this with Perl, if you have POSIX::strptime
          Example program (totimestamp.pl):



          #!/usr/bin/perl

          use strict;
          use POSIX ("tzset", "mktime");
          use POSIX::strptime;

          POSIX::tzset ();

          my $ARGC= scalar (@ARGV);
          my $tstamp;

          if ($ARGC < 1) {
          $tstamp= time ();

          } else {
          my $tstr= $ARGV[0];
          my ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdst);
          ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year, $wday, $yday, $isdst) =
          POSIX::strptime($tstr, "%b %d %H:%M:%S %Y");

          $tstamp= POSIX::mktime ($sec, $min, $hour, $mday, $mon, $year);
          }

          printf ("%dn", $tstamp);


          Usage:



          perl ./totimestamp.pl "Nov 16 14:40:00 2018"
          1542375600
