It has a time() function though, which is what everyone else (incorrectly)
uses to get the unix time.  I wasn't suggesting that he do such a thing,
just suggesting he can use that crude method to determine which of his
existing algorithms was correct.  Of course, your neatly packaged routine
is likely a more direct route! BFN.  Paul.

P.S. Which I added to ozpd for next release (it's been a while!)
