CRAZY JACK'S DATE ROUTINES
(c)Copyright 1991 by Crazy Jack
All Rights Reserved
Crazy Jack's Date Routines make it easy to determine the number of days
between dates, find the day of the week of a date, convert between Gregorian
and Julian dates, sort on dates, and to check the validity of given dates.
They are meant to be incorporated into your Turbo Pascal and Borland C
programs. Source code is provided as well as .OBJ and .TPU files. Also
included are demo programs and other goodies.
This package contains these files (unless you've been ripped off):
READ.ME Introductory remarks and instructions (this file).
DATES.DOC The User's Guide.
DATES.ASM The Date Routines assembler source.
DATES.LST The assembly listing.
DATES.OBJ The assembled object module.
DATES.PAS The Turbo Pascal unit source code.
DATES.TPU The Turbo Pascal v6.0 compiled unit.
DATES.INC Additional Turbo Pascal source code.
DATES.H C header for date routines.
DATENAMS.C Additional C source code for #including.
DTP.PAS Turbo Pascal date routines demo source code.
DTP.EXE Compiled Turbo Pascal date routines demo.
DTC.C Borland C++ C date routines demo source code.
DTC.EXE C date routines demo ready-to-run.
The instructions you want are in DATES.DOC. To print it, just copy it to PRN:
COPY DATES.DOC PRN
Note that it's "PRN", not ">PRN". "PRN" Copies TO the printer. ">PRN"
redirects the messages from COPY to the printer and copies the DATES.DOC file
to the current default drive and directory!
DATES.DOC is 16 pages long. There are no special effects or overprinting, no
more than 58 lines on a page, and the pages are separated by form feeds, so
it's compatible with most sheet feeders as well as continuous forms and laser
printers.
The listing from the assembly of DATES.ASM is included as "DATES.LST". You
can print this listing the same way you print DATES.DOC, by copying it to PRN.
The maximum line length is 124 characters, so you will need either a wide
printer or you'll have to use condensed mode printing. With typical condensed
mode printing at 17.5 cpi you can set up your printer with as much as a half
inch left margin without wrapping the lines. As with DATES.DOC, there are no
more than 58 lines per page and the pages are separated by form feeds.
