    TIME(3C)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual		 TIME(3C)

    NAME
         time, ftime - get date and time

    SYNOPSIS
         long time(0)

         long time(tloc)
         long *tloc;

         #include <sys/types.h>
         #include <sys/timeb.h>
         ftime(tp)
         struct timeb *tp;

    DESCRIPTION
         These interfaces are obsoleted by gettimeofday(2).

         Time returns the time since 00:00:00 GMT, Jan. 1, 1970,
         measured in seconds.

         If tloc is nonnull, the return value is also stored in the
         place to which tloc points.

         The ftime entry fills in a structure pointed to by its argu-
         ment, as defined by <sys/timeb.h>:

          */

         /*
          * Structure returned by ftime system call
          */
         struct timeb
         {
    	  time_t   time;
    	  unsigned short millitm;
    	  short    timezone;
    	  short    dstflag;
         };

         The structure contains the time since the epoch in seconds,
         up to 1000 milliseconds of more-precise interval, the local
         time zone (measured in minutes of time westward from
         Greenwich), and a flag that, if nonzero, indicates that Day-
         light Saving time applies locally during the appropriate
         part of the year.
