Subject: &time keyword
Anyone know where Icon gets the value it uses for the &time keyword
on Unix systems? My time values on my local machine (which was
rebuilt last weekend) are suddenly out by 1 hour...
Do you mean &clock? &time measures elapsed processor time.
Icon v9.3.2 calls the POSIX localtime() function for &clock, &date, and
&dateline. This is influenced, among other things, by the setting of the
TZ environment variable.
What's your machine architecture and OS? What does &version report?
