Re: Getting date

["N. Sivin" nsivin@xxxxxxxx]

To get a date into a save/get, the first step is to decide
whether you want it in text form (so it doesn't change
tomorrow, command TODAY) or in automatically updating form
(command DA).

Then all you have to do is select the delta and save it to a
save/get. In an XPL program you do

[BX] (DA) or [BX] (TODAY)
where BX is a command. This corresponds to the keyboard
BX,(,d,a,)
