I'm confused, now, I responded to Denise Tomlinson, and now Erich is answering.
Oh, well, in addition to what Kevin was saying about removing the line in your
STARTUP procedure that reads: SETIME 1...
If you truly don't need to have the time set with setime because of having a
smartwatch installed in your system, then you can also customize your SHELL by
removing SETIME from the MERGEd programs in there.
You can use a utility called SEPARATE (I think it's in DL9 or 10), to bust the
shell apart, then you can delete the setime utility, if it's there.
Then you can use the space that had been taken up by SETIME for some other
useful utility of equal or lesser size. Then MERGE the individual programs
back into your NEW.SHELL. SETIME, on my system anyay, is only 280 bytes long,
but you might have another often used utility that would be more useful to you.
PWD and PXD are possible candidates for inclusion, but each is a little bit
bigger than the 280 bytes freed by SETIME. However, with a little finagling,
you might be able to fit one or both of them in there.
Let's us know how things work out.
