This is my first attempt at programming Borland's powerful
Turbo Vision. For my application, I had the need to constantly
display the date and time on my DeskTop. To display the time
I used the clock object from the gadget unit that came with Turbo
Pascal 6.0. Necessity being the motivation for invention, I set
out to write my own Turbo Vision unit that would display the date
as well. This was a leaning experience to say the least. Using
Gadgets as a template, and an OOP unit I had previously written
to display the date as a string, XDate was born. Use TestPlat.PAS
to demonstrate the use of XDate in the upper right portion of the
MenuBar. DT_Test.PAS demonstrates the use of the clock object,
from gadgets, in the MenuBar and XDate in right portion of the
StatusLine.
