date2= time.localtime(time.time())
year = repr(date2[0])
month= repr(date2[1])
day = repr(date2[2])
hour = repr(date2[3])
min = repr(date2[4])
sec = repr(date2[5])
f = year + month + day
b = hour+ min+ sec
os.system (r"pkzip25 -add blah"+ f + r"_" + b +r".zip data_in.dat")
to get this file: blahyyyymmss_hhmmss.zip
although i am not guaranteed to get 2 spots if the integer value is less
than 10.
