The timestmp program writes the current date and time to the standard output
device. It accepts no arguments.
The ARC file includes six files:
fclbtime.cmd a command (batch) file with a single command that will
generate timestmp.exe by compiling, linking, and
"binding" timestmp.for
timestmp.doc this file
timestmp.exb the executable file; "bound" so it will run under DOS,
OS/2 real mode ("the DOS box"), and OS/2 protected mode
(with full-screen, not windowed, prompt)
timestmp.exp the executable file; for OS/2 protected mode only
timestmp.exr the executable file; for OS/2 real mode and DOS only
timestmp.for the source code
The timestmp command was written by Robert E. Zaret using Microsoft FORTRAN
5.1 under IBM OS/2 1.1. The author claims no copyright, and thus relinquishes
all rights; (i.e., this program is truly in the public domain). In fact, the
author encourages others to make modifications, such as:
rewrite in assembler or C
accept argument(s) to control format(s) of date and time (the number
of possible formats is staggering)
rewrite for Windows or OS/2 windowed prompt
