Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG OK - In the gettimeofday() call; it returns a structure that has two values. First, the number of seconds since 1970. The second field is the number of microseconds. Certainly, the number of microseconds since 1970 is larger than an int... so; I take it this is the number of microseconds for the current day... is that right? - Thanks - - Dave R. - To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
