Print readable format of unix timestamp

Here is a quick script I have in ~/bin/ called ts to convert unix timestamps like "1396472917" into readable date formats like "Wed Apr 2 15:08:37 2014"

#!/bin/env python
import sys,time

print time.ctime(float(sys.argv[1]))

$ ts 1396472917
Wed Apr  2 15:08:37 2014
$
