I am getting tired of always resetting the date and time on my 1040ST.  I
like to have the date and time printed on all my sources but if I don't
actually set it I always get NOV 00 00:00.  (I am printing using the 'pr'
formatter from 'msh' {Mark Williams Shell}.)

If anyone knows of a means of giving my 1040 a battery backup for the
keyboard clock please let me know.  I would prefer some sort of cartridge
but am willing to do minor mods to the interior of the machine.

Thanks in advance for any replys.

PS. If this has been on the net recently and I have simply missed it, then
just e-mail your responses.
