Unix Time Converter Extension

Unix Time Converter quickly converts time stamps.

With a click of the mouse it displays the current time in Unix format (number of seconds since epoch) and its ISO 8601 representation in both UTC and local time zone.

It can also convert an arbitrary text into a Unix time, a JavaScript time (same as Unix time, but expressed in milliseconds), UTC and local.

When the supplied time is a number, it is always interpreted as the offset since epoch, but depending on its value it is assumed to be seconds, milliseconds, or nanoseconds.

When the supplied time is a string, Unix Time Converter tries to interpret it and display it in the four supported formats.

This extension was inspired by the Epoch Converter add-on for Firefox written by Harsh Karn.
