Tough stuff, date subtraction and addition and so forth

Posted by Anne Gentle at 2006-06-20 13:50
Date addition and subtraction is some of the toughest stuff. I think you'd have to use one of these utilities that others have written: a quick Google search yielded these tools:

fdate at http://www.ferg.org/fdate/index.html

nowminus at http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/programs/ (pascal implementation but only requires DOS to run, apparently)

Anyone else have other helper tools for date subtraction?
