To install a binary in /usr/local/bin simply do

	make install

Edit the Makefile to install in a different location. Remove with

	make uninstall

This utility is distributed as part of ipfw2dshield. It uses strptime(3)
to convert a given date string together with a corresponding format string
to seconds since the Epoch (Unix time). The synopsis is

	strpdate -f fmt date

Such a conversion is required by ipfw2dshield and this utility was added
to avoid conflicts with Darwin's implementation of date(1). On FreeBSD 
strpdate is equivalent to

	date -j -f fmt date +%s

provided that the supplied fmt/date specification is sufficient for a 
successful conversion.
