If you have a PC/Clone and a modem that uses the "AT" command set, there is
a program on SIMTEL20 that uses this service to automaticly set the time on
your PC. The name and location are "PD:<MSDOS.SYSUTL>NBSTIME.ARC". I just
got this and it seems to do the job. It works in about 15 seconds, and can
even update the time in the clock hardware of AT class PCs.
