  13. What I would like to put on the wish list is for date(1) to update the
  14. CMOS clock.  My system has a basically dead battery, so the clock
  15. doesn't actually run when I shut it off.  When I restart the computer
  16. (if it hasn't been too long) the result of a date is the same time at
  17. which I shut the computer off.
