## gmtime

    $gm = gmtime()

Overrides the core `gmtime` function. The Time::tm object returned has methods with the same names as the structure fields they return. That is, to return the field `mon`, use the `mon` method:

>     use Time::gmtime;
>     $gm = gmtime();
>     print $gm->mon;

The field names (and therefore the method names) are the same as the names of the fields in the tm structure in the C file time.h: `sec`, `min`, `hour`, `mday`, `mon`, `year`, `wday`, `yday`, and `isdst`. You can access the fields either with the methods or by importing the fields into your namespace with the :FIELDS import tag and prepending `tm_` to the method name (for example, `$tm_mon`).
