Datetime module

[rublind]

I am writing a script that acts as an AIM bot [using twisted.IM's base
scripts] and I want to add a logging feature. I got it to log who sends
what to whom, but what I want to add is the date and time that the
message was sent (or recieved by the bot), I tried to look at datetime
on my own, and I couldn't get anything to work.
Anyone know a simple way to get the current date and/or time?

Thanks!

The time module will do.'Mon Jan 10 11:17:54 2005'

Use strftime if you need to format the time differently.'2005-01-10 11:01:45'

take a look at the logging module as well, in the documentation
(paragraph 6.29.2 for release 2.4) you find a basic example

You may also want to consider using the logging module.
