Yes, pretty much replaced date, but not a full replacement.
It's only purpose was to set the software clock.  My net
access was spotty at the time so was unaware of the updated
progs posted by Andrzej.

Either you would type in the date as YYYYMMDDhhmm[ss]
when prompted or it would accept and argument formatted
as 'YYMMDDhhmm.ss' which I think is what was returned by
one of the coherent date set routines.  Note, there is no
timezone logic, so I use to add/subtract the # of hours
to adjust from GMT as a command line argument or would
adjust the time as I typed it in.

You may need to compile with '-f', I really do no remember
if it is needed.  I also consider it public domain :)

Regards
John
