date format conversion

hi

im a newbie to perl, hope i'm in the right place

i need to convert datetime between two formats: epoch time (or any
equivalent of that) and pretty unix time (the same that's used in cookies)

even if you just point me to a resource on the net, i would be gratefull

thanks
