Hi Vince,

This was just a packet I had somewhere over here not a live packet that I
cared to toss into Fidonet.. Just to test that the binary was going to do
what I expected.. and it did :)  There was nothing wrong with the date of
the original packet, it was from a long time ago..

It's for "Messages English"

If you do have a file a.out, rename it to pktdate then just run pkdate with
no other parameters and you'll get the help screen.

BTW, I did rename the  uppercase file PKTDATE.C to lower case, and since the
source #includes pktdate.lng (lower case) that's when I actually got it to
compile correctly.

Take care,
Janis
