Hi,

Small question,

Is there a general way to ask the 'system time' (date and time )to some
root system class? (TSystem?) I could use some 'standard' unix routines
but i would prefer to use something platform independed.

I see a TSystem::now() but I'm not sure if I should use this one... (it
returns millisec... is this relative to something???)

Thanks,

Rutger
