1. moredates.e
I cleaned up and re-uploaded my version of Moredates.
I would like some people to try it and look for bugs.
It has three simple routines:
data={years,months,days,hours,minuets,seconds}
1) data= getTimePassed(00/00/00,00:00:00) -time after event
2) data= get_countdown(00/00/00,00:00:00) --time until event
3) day= getday(00/00/00) --returns "Monday" etc. for a date in the future.
I didn't do dates for the past because I figure if the day has passed you
already know what day it was.
Can be used with Windows Dos Linux etc...
Coments welcome,

I think there is a date file in archives. Your's is prolly different, you could
run
it against your code to see what differences it generates?

There is but it I found it very complcated and difficult to use.
The idea of mine is it's simple. Mine could be slower ;I haven't bench marked
them.

Hi again Don,
I took a look at your dates program and a problem came up.
When i ran the demo, i got an Eu error:
"can't find mylog.e in...(various directories)"
After remming out 'mylog.e' it ran ok however and looks
kinda neat when it's running :)
Perhaps you can rem that out or include the file?
I tried a few of the functions and they seemed to work ok,
but there was no help file so i didnt know what you expected
from all those function calls. If there was a help file that
described all the function calls (or at least the main ones)
i think it would be much easier to use. It might also help
to list the allowable input parameters and limitations, and
perhaps even what some of your goals where with this lib.
Just an idea...
The function "getSecToMin(atom secs)"
might be faster if you replace it with some Eu's functions:
function getSecToMin(atom secs)
integer mins
mins=floor(secs/60)
secs=secs-mins*60
return (mins,secs}--sprintf too if you like.
end function
but i didnt know what the max secs the function might receive.
Take care,
Al
And, good luck with your Euphoria programming!

Hi Don,
I'd suggest that you name the *.e files for you moredates specifically to match
your library - for example:
mydate.e > moredate.e
mygets.e > moredate_gets.e

Hi Al ,
I remmed out that line it was from an old trouble shooting file , no longer
needed. I think the documentation is pretty well remmed in each of the
major functions.
Thank you that was the kind of thing I was looking for.
Hello Kenneth,
and thank you . I had to keep the names short because of long file name
problems with the Windows 2000 Dos version.
