Time Intrinsic (VXT)
....................

     CALL Time(TIME)

TIME: `CHARACTER*8'; scalar; INTENT(OUT).

Intrinsic groups: `vxt'.

Description:

   Returns in TIME a character representation of the current time as
obtained from `ctime(3)'.

   Programs making use of this intrinsic might not be Year 10000 (Y10K)
compliant.  For example, the date might appear, to such programs, to
wrap around (change from a larger value to a smaller one) as of the
Year 10000.

   Note: FDate Intrinsic (subroutine), for an equivalent routine.
