- { DASTRFIXED
-
- Takes an integer date value and returned an eight-character
- string for month, day and year.
-
- If SPACES is passed as true, a leading zero will be converted
- to a space in the month and day positions.
-
- The separator character is provided as '-' but is declared
- as a constant so can be changed fairly easily.
-
- The following global types must be declared:
- TYPE string255 = string 255;
- byte = 0..255;
-
- The following additional procedures must be declared:
- PROCEDURE breakdate;
- PROCEDURE setlength; external;
- }
-
- FUNCTION strbyte (val : byte; withspace : boolean) : string255;
-
- CONST zero = 48;
-
- VAR ch : char;
- str : string255;
-
- begin
- setlength (str,0);
- if (val div 10 = 0) and withspace
- then str := ' '
- else str := chr (val div 10 + zero);
- append (str,chr(val mod 10 + zero));
- strbyte := str
- end;
-
- FUNCTION dastrfixed (days : integer; spaces : boolean) : string255;
-
- CONST zero = 48;
- separator = '-';
-
- VAR day, mo, da, yr : byte;
- str : string255;

- begin
- brkdate (days,mo,da,yr,day);
