Network Comment: to #10163 by blake!aragorn@beaver.cs.washington.edu Michael Owen was correct in stating that ModemWorks, a communications toolkit for Applesoft that I've designed, did not fetch time information from the No-Slot Clock (Apricorn ClockPro, IIc Ultra-RAM, and other similar chip-based clocks). Recently, however, I have improved the program so that it now will return all the time information it has access to based on the clock in your computer. With a IIGS or 100% ProDOS-compatible (see ProDOS Tech Note #1) clock card, the &TIME command returns day of week, date, month, year, hours, minutes and seconds -- the whole thing. With other clock systems, the day of week and seconds are returned as "???" and "00" respectively. ProLine, a networked BBS and conferencing system I've created, now can work on systems that use the chip-based clocks. --Morgan Davis UUCP: crash!pnet01!pro-sol!mdavis ProLine: mdavis@pro-sol ARPA: crash!pnet01!pro-sol!mdavis@nosc.mil MCI Mail: 137-6036 INET: mdavis@pro-sol.cts.com ALPE|BIX: mdavis
