- Description:
-
- The package contains two programs:
-
- currDir: puts the pathname of the current directory into a variable,
- optionally allowing you to truncate it to a given length. The truncation
- is done sensibly (you keep the filing system and device names, but lose
- the beginning of the directory path). Only works under RISC OS 3 or later.
-
- setDate: writes the current date and time to an AOF file, so you can have
- the date of compilation embedded in your programs easily. The format
- is totally variable; you can even create module help strings with it.
- You can have any number of date strings in the AOF file, each given a
- different identifier.
