111025 - [On 100122 0647 problem with purge command syntax error.

111029 - [On 100129 0700 Morris fixed this problem. ref SDS 27 OT3K

111032 - [On 100428 1128 Morris fixed problem with compiler
111033 - processing ins_text command. ref SDS 28 263K
111035 - ..
111036 - [On 100506 1000 ins_text command causing text outside
111037 - target columns to shift left. ref SDS 29 D16N

111041 - 845O
111043 - ..
111044 - He does not want to get values for datecnt from the system clock, but
111045 - from somewhere else that requires managing time zones and daylight
111046 - saving time issues. He mentions Greenwich meantime. This sounds like
111047 - a requirement for being connected to the Internet, and would create a
111048 - huge delay in program processing.
111049 -
111050 - [On 090528 0822 temporarily solved problem by configuring
111051 - datecnt command to pacific standard time, but also recognizes
111052 - daylight savings time. ref SDS 25 QX4O
111054 - ..
111055 - Morris seems to indicate this is a Java thing, that it has a wide
111056 - range of time management capabilities. Sounds these can be usefully
111057 - deployed, but not for the datecnt command.
111059 - ..
111060 - The current datecnt command gives the user control of datecnt content
111061 - by setting the computer clock in the OS. It can be configured to get
111062 - the current time from an Internet resource, but only once a day. This
111063 - is effective, because there are circumstances creating records when
111064 - considerations need to be tested for various date and time parameters.
111065 - If datecnt is always "accurate" to Greenwich meantime, or any fixed
111066 - control, then requirements to experiment with variable time parameters
111067 - will be frustrated.
111069 - ..
111070 - Morris gave an example if other people are using the computer who may
111071 - have a different time zone.
111073 - ..
111074 - There may be use cases where multiple users for a single computer need
111075 - different time zones, but this can be addressed in the next version of
111076 - SDS. The current version is get SDS running as is on 64-bit
111077 - technology. One solution would be to add a parameter for time zone
111078 - but the utility is not evident for the purpose of SDS.
111080 - ..
111081 - Morris asked about millisecond parameter.
111083 - ..
111084 - Actually think this can be useful. It should be counter 7, which
111085 - requires moving the day of the week from counter 7 to counter 8.
111086 - Since we are doing this. why not add a day of the year parameter to
111087 - couner 9. We can test where datecnt is used to switch where counter
111088 - 7 is applied and move it to 8, and verify that this does not
111089 - overwrite current code using counters 8 and 9.
111091 - ..
111092 - Morris said he provided counters 0 499, so there is plenty of room to
111093 - make immediate adjustments wihout having a ripple effect that requires
111094 - adjusting a bunch of other stuff.
111095 -
111096 - [On 090528 0822 temporarily solved problem by configuring
111097 - datecnt command to pacific standard time, but also recognizes
