Date Time Parser

I  am  looking for a date time parser for the Apollo.  The more ways you
can  type  the  date  at  it,  the better.  I don't really care what the
parser    puts   out   as   long   as   it   is   consistant.    I   see
cal_$decode_ascii_date   and   cal_$decode_ascii_time  under  the  Aegis
libraries.   I  was hoping on being able to pass it both the day and the
time  in  one  string in a variety of formats, though.  I understand the
UNIX  calendar parses pretty well.  Perhpas there is a UNIX routine I am
overlooking?

Replying to your request (to Apollo@YALE.ARPA) for a date/time parser:

I wrote a date/time parser for 4.1BSD UNIX a while back.  It is avail-
able via anonymous FTP from LOCUS.UCLA.EDU in "~ftp/arch/date.tar".
You are welcome to grab a copy of it and use it in any way you like.
