               Docs for Date-A-Base version 2

First you must copy the following files into a directory called:
		      .date

The files are:       bbase
		     Questions

then into this directory you must also issue:
	     touch database

The actual program files are
		date.v2.p
		getw.c
		getw.h

To run the programs you must

cc -c getw.c

Then:

pc date.v2.p getw.o

you can then ReMove date.v2.p, getw.c, getw.o, date.o and getw.h
and rename the a.out file.

so here are the commands:
	     mkdir .date
	     cp Questions .date/Questions
	     cp bbase .date/bbase
	     touch .date/database
	     cc -c getw.c
	     pc date.v2.p getw.o
	     mv a.out datingame

Just type 'datingame' and away it goes.

There is a copyright on the program. This doesn't mean you can't give it
away or modify it. It only means that my name is to appear in the 'bye'
procedure and the commented header.

Technical stuff
---------------

The differences between version 1.0 and 2.0 are:

In 2.0, the user no longer has to enter his own name. His login name
is automatically placed in the Date-A-Base.

Version 2.0 also support the wallclock function. The wallclock function
returns the number of seconds that have passed since Jan. 1, 1970.
This may be called something else on your system, so you can modify the
source to any function that is functionally the same.

In version 2.0 the data files (database, bbase and Questions) are places
in a hidden directory (.date). These can be moved to any directory as 
long as you change the 'reset' commands.
