Hi Mike,

In a message you wrote to Peter Fitzsimmons:

I'll take issue with the usual typedef for time_t being "unsigned" :-).
The only compiler I've got which typdef's it to "unsigned long" is
Watcom (10.0a), all the others I've checked (Borland DOS 3.1 & OS/2 1.0,
IBM CSET++ V2.0 and Visualage C++ V3.0, Microsoft C 6.0a, TopSpeed C
3.1) typedef it to "long".
