Hi Si,

and I hope you had a very happy new year and to all other Sam users of course as well.

Well it wasn't Master DOS but I had merged Masterbasic into BDOS so it could be the problem comes from there. I'll have to have a look to see if I still have a version of BDOS without Masterbasic, just to try the Date command.

just started simcoupe with BDOS v1.7b this morning and noticed that

Is that MasterDOS rather than BDOS?  I tried BDOS 1.5a and 1.7d here,
but that doesn't have a DATE command or DATE$ variable.

MasterDOS shows 01/01/00 in v1.0, but 01/01/10 in my development
version, so looks like I fixed it when enhancing the clock for the fancy
new DALLAS chip Edwin includes with some AtomLite+ boards.

I'll build a hotfix version of v1.0 with the updated clock, as there's
too much new and experimental stuff outstanding to risk a development
build.  I should manage that before I go back to work in a few days.

Happy New Year all!

Si
