Problems with Ut_string

hi,

I'm trying to make a custom date format so I extract gfs timestamp and put it in a format readable from linux shel comand (lines 300 and 301) and I obtain the right format YYYYMMDD HH (line 304) as bah command line want

so i made (line 304)

date2 = systemfunc("date -d '(date)' +'%A %H'")

but the result is always Sunday 00

Why?

Regards

Ugo
