Like I said, there is code that can handle most any unit or syntax you'd need, all it needs is porting (and localization; it's english-only ATM). Takes a string, feeds you back the time in seconds-since-epoch, which could just be plugged in to the existing dbr calculations instead of the current time. Most of the work is done by the yacc/bison grammar and some tables that won't need to be touched for the porting, which should keep bugs under control. -- Benjamin Coates _______________________________________________ Devl mailing list Devl at freenetproject.org http://lists.freenetproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devl
