- Short: A simple but practical SetTime script
- Author: petho@spike.fa.gau.hu (Szabolcs Petho)
- Uploader: petho@spike.fa.gau.hu (Szabolcs Petho)
- Type: util/time
-
- Set the correct time with a simple CLI script. Why I wrote this anyway ?
- Because I think it is simple but effective and mainly I haven't got a
- clock inside my Amiga. You can save about $25 with a bit work. You have
- to set the correct date only once a day, and the correct time at every
- startup procedure.
-
- And why is it worth ? Why you need a clock or this script ?
- - it is a must if you are a programmer, where your source files have to be
- maintained by a makefile
- - you can use fine the Workbench View by Date option
- - you can use other dir utils' date sort function
- - you have more chance to find the new files after an unneeded installation
- - you have more chance to find fileviruses
-
- Note: extract the archie file with the -a (Preserve file attributes) option.
