How do I get today's date into a pspp program without manually entering it?

 

SPSS provides @TODAY, and SAS has TODAY(). A common use case is computing
age from a birthdate when age itself is not collected in the dataset being
analyzed. Another use is putting a run date on a report.  The usual DATE
functions require user input, so they cannot do this from a running program.

 

I'm using GNU pspp 2.1.1-g557d00 on Windows 11 and GNU pspp 2.1.1 on
FreeBSD.

 

Thanks for any clarification.

Kent
