pmdate - display an offset date

pmdate displays the current date and/or time, with an optional offset.

       An  offset  is  specified with a leading sign (``+'' or ``-''), followed by an integer value, followed by
       one of the following ``scale'' specifiers;

       S      seconds
       M      minutes
       H      hours
       d      days
       m      months
       y      years

       The output format follows the same rules as for date(1) and strftime(3).

       For example, the following will display the date a week ago as DDMMYYYY;
               pmdate -7d %d%m%Y
