      From: nospam.g00r00@f215.n129.z1.fidonet.org               LW> Function TIMER : LongInt               LW> As such, may I assume the timer value rolls over from 86399 to 0 at        LW> midnight? If so, doesn't the delta between two readings require        LW> modulation in order to accommodate successive readings across this        LW> boundary?              Yes both Timer and TimerMin would roll over at midnight and probably aren't all       that useful for timing despite their function names lol.              If you want to count seconds independant of a midnight rollover, you can use       the "DateUnix" function which returns the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970       and has no rollover.              ...
