I wouldn't know how to capture the system date for a .BAT file in DOS.  I might
study REXX and find a way to do it for a .CMD file in OS/2.  Unix ought to have
a way, Unix shells being so much more powerful than DOS shells.  It would be
possible in DOS, and probably OS/2, to set the year to 2000 without changing the
month and day, using assembler language.

By the way, is it possible to view a .MES file offline with Arachne 1.67?  I
keep getting Arachne load error, which didn't happen with previous Arachnes.
