I'm using an Indigo with IRIX 4.0

the code
		buf = ctime ((const time_t *) time);
		printf ("buf=%s\n", buf);

always prints, no matter how often I call it, something like;

	Sat. Jan. 10, 1989 12:43:01

(this may be the wrong order of data as I'm typeing this from 
memory). The point is, typeing "date"
 at the command line gives the correct
info. Why doesn't the code?

thanks in advance, steve

remote VAX mail servers) is someone elses problem - namely yours.
