3.20 XENIX

Question: Are there any TIME or DATE functions available in XENIX FORTRAN?

Response: There is no FORTRAN date or time function. Using FORTRAN Version 3.21, the best way to find out the date or time would be to write an assembly subroutine. In FORTRAN Version 3.30, it is easier because you can create a Pascal subroutine. Giving a subroutine the Pascal attribute is described in the XENIX Pascal Version 3.30 reference manual on Page 190. The Pascal procedures that are available are the DATE, TICS, and TIME procedures.
