CDATE Version 1.4
--------------------------------------------------
Purpose: Changes the time/date stamp on a file.

Format: CDATE filespec [time] [date]

Remarks: The given filespec has its time/date stamp set
to [time] and [date]. If either [time] or
[date] is not specified, the current system
setting is used for that parameter. Thus

CDATE foo.bar

would set the time/date stamp of the file
foo.bar to the current system time/date.

[time] and [date] may be given in any any
order, CDATE will figure out which is which.

CDATE does not check if [date] is a real date,
be careful or you could have files with dates
like 02-32-87 or whatever else you may mis-
type. Using weird dates won't hurt anything,
CDATE will go about its business and set the

date to what you specify. DOS usually won't
mind these strange dates either.

CDATE looks for ':' as the delimiter for times. Either
'/' or '-' may be used for dates.

Filespec may contain wildcards.

CDATE is free, but I would love to hear from people that
use it! I am also always looking for other entertaining
projects to tackle.
