localtime() assumes that you'll be applying the number returned to an
array, like so:

<perl>
my @month = qw(Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov);

my $this_month = $month[localtime()[4]];
</perl>

Note that in the array, Jan is entry 0, May is entry 4 and June is entry
5. To get the numbered month as we normally think of it, add one.

See Eugene's reference or

for more detail.
