Q
Inovations C Compiler.  I have almost completed it except that I have
run into a problem trying to design a C routine that would be the 
equivalent of Unix's time() function.  I have the following information
available to me:
	year from 1980, month, day, hour and seconds

	I need to devise from this a 32 bit long integer equivalent to
time().  If anyone knows of the algorithm to do this, or better yet
has written a routine for this, please forward it to me.

		Thank you for any help,

	month
