Here's my amended version that is embeddded into my chat
client and now uses the /hour/minute/second refinements of
time
; converts a time value into internet time
to-internettime: func [ time [time!] timezone [time!] /local
gmttime ] [
gmttime: time - timezone
if gmttime < 0:00 [ gmttime: gmttime + 24:00 ]
if gmttime > 24:00 [ gmttime: gmttime - 24:00 ]
gmttime: ( ( ( gmttime/hour * 3600 ) + ( gmttime/minute *
60 ) + gmttime/second ) / 86.40 ) + 41 ; offset from GMT/UTC
if gmttime > 1000 [ gmttime: gmttime - 1000 ]
return ( to-integer ( gmttime * 100 ) ) / 100
]
; returns local time in beats
internettime: does [
return to-internettime now/time now/zone
]
I've checked it a few times with the one on swatch.com and
it agrees to within a few beats.
