I need a C library routine to convert an ASCII string to the Unix long int 
representation for time (number of seconds since Jan/70).

Does anyone have anything that might to the trick? I was mildly suprised
that there is no standard Unix library routine for doing this. (Well if
there is it's well hidden!)

Thanks in advance for anyone who has written such a routine and is willing
to post or mail it.
