DATE(I) 11/1/74 DATE(I)
NAME
date - print and set the date
SYNOPSIS
date [ s ] [ mmddhhmm[yy] ]
DESCRIPTION
If no argument is given, the current date and time are
printed. If an argument is given, the current date is set.
The first mm is the month number; dd is the day number in
the month; hh is the hour number (24 hour system); the sec-
ond mm is the minute number; yy is the last 2 digits of the
year number and is optional. For example:
date 10080045
sets the date to Oct 8, 12:45 AM. The current year is the
default if no year is mentioned. The system operates in
GMT. Date takes care of the conversion to and from local
standard and daylight time.
If the argument is ``s,'' date calls the network file store
via the TIU interface (if present) and sets the clock to the
time thereby obtained.
DIAGNOSTICS
``No permission'' if you aren't the super-user and you try
to change the date; ``bad conversion'' if the date set is
syntactically incorrect.
