-
- Crazy Jack's Date Routines make it easy to determine the number of days
- between dates, find the day of the week of a date, convert between Gregorian
- and Julian dates, sort on dates, and to check the validity of given dates.
- They are meant to be incorporated into your Turbo Pascal and Borland C
- programs. Source code is provided as well as .OBJ and .TPU files. Also
- included are demo programs and other goodies.
-
- This package contains these files (unless you've been ripped off):
-
- READ.ME Introductory remarks and instructions (this file).
- DATES.DOC The User's Guide.
- DATES.ASM The Date Routines assembler source.
- DATES.LST The assembly listing.
- DATES.OBJ The assembled object module.
- DATES.PAS The Turbo Pascal unit source code.
- DATES.TPU The Turbo Pascal v6.0 compiled unit.
- DATES.INC Additional Turbo Pascal source code.
- DATES.H C header for date routines.
- DATENAMS.C Additional C source code for #including.
- DTP.PAS Turbo Pascal date routines demo source code.
- DTP.EXE Compiled Turbo Pascal date routines demo.
- DTC.C Borland C++ C date routines demo source code.
- DTC.EXE C date routines demo ready-to-run.
-
- The instructions you want are in DATES.DOC. To print it, just copy it to PRN:
-
- COPY DATES.DOC PRN
-
- Note that it's "PRN", not ">PRN". "PRN" Copies TO the printer. ">PRN"
- redirects the messages from COPY to the printer and copies the DATES.DOC file
- to the current default drive and directory!
-
- DATES.DOC is 16 pages long. There are no special effects or overprinting, no
- more than 58 lines on a page, and the pages are separated by form feeds, so
- it's compatible with most sheet feeders as well as continuous forms and laser
- printers.
-
- The listing from the assembly of DATES.ASM is included as "DATES.LST". You
- can print this listing the same way you print DATES.DOC, by copying it to PRN.
- The maximum line length is 124 characters, so you will need either a wide
- printer or you'll have to use condensed mode printing. With typical condensed
- mode printing at 17.5 cpi you can set up your printer with as much as a half
- inch left margin without wrapping the lines. As with DATES.DOC, there are no
- more than 58 lines per page and the pages are separated by form feeds.
