EXTIME89.LBR
FROM FOG#15/NYOUG, Modified by Liv Hinckley 04/09/88
The EXTIME.COM program simply counts days from the
initilaization of the system clock, and 1988 is a leap year. So,
if you don't correct for the extra day, your clock is off by a
day after February 29th. This change to EXTIME88.LBR fixes the
leap year error by adding onesday to the clock. It's a quick and
dirty solution, but it passes the test. So we'll remind you now
that you'll have to make another fix in March 1992! I don't know
about you, but I expect to have a 10th birthday party for Ozzie!
EXTIME89 and EXTIME90 work correctly, so you'll be ready without
the bother of editing the file or reassembling.

;
; EXTIME (renamed Time.com on my disk) is an easier and
; faster way to set date and time on an Osborne Executive.
; You don't have to put in slashes ("/") or semi
; (":") colons, and the program knows the year - so you
; don't have to type it either.
; I downloaded this as part of a LBR from FOG#1
; RBBS in California, called OXTOOLS.LBR, but this is the
; only file I found useful. All I did was to patch another
; version for 1987 and 1986 and delete the one for 1985
; (for obvious reasons) that was in the original library,
; and stick them and the original DOC file (still squeezed)
; and Z80 source for anyone who cares in4o a library.
; Library has been updated again, it now contains
; versions of the program for 1988 and 1989. Enjoy.
