hi
  i have problem which is simple but im struggling to solve it..below i
gave one sample of log file which is in text file format.the problem is
i have to get time in this logfile and deduct the time from system file
finally i have to bring the answer to standard output.. i got idea of
reading line from logfile and copy to stdout. but the problem is i
can't do manipulation(getting time difference) in textfile..some body
please help me out..


logfile:
---------

jobid                                              time
------------------------------------------------------------

181     0 ._11CH_CAS render       qw    07/23/2005 00:08:44
       112,113

._11CH_CAS1_q123s001_001_222_T2_ExtVeh02_SHD.ma

       Full jobname:
._11CH_CAS1_q123s001_133_185_T3_ExtVeh03_SHD.ma


the output in stdout should be like this:


jobid         timedifference(this is diff between logfiletime and
systemtime)
-----------------------------------
181             1000 minutes
