question about the vmu clock   Message List

Re: [vmu] question about the vmu clock

it does, but you have to know the address of the
system variable.
Since time is stored in system variables (which are
stored in a different area of memory), you have to use
the getsysvar function.
For example, the seconds are stored in address $1d,
to retrieve it, you'd type this:
my_variable = getsysvar: $1d

I hope this helps. If you aren't sure which addresses
are used for which system variables, check with
Marcus's site. It'll be at his VMS Firmware page.
