I think I found a bug in Lattice 3.10's getft() (at least in my libraries
its wrong :-)): it subtracts exactly six hours from the time shown by
AmigaDOS's List command. Anyone else found this???

Did you check to see which time zone the program thought you were in ? :-)
A common question from my student days "The stupid time function is broken,
it is 8 hours off!" Answer "What time would it be if you lived in Britian?"
Don't know if Lattice is taking that into account or not but it is worth
a shot.

These opinions are my own and no one elses, but you knew that didn't you.
