Time is an abstract Custom Class of the Magic User Interface © by Stefan Stuntz.
It's a subclass of notify-class and only usable for developers who want to
build subclasses of Time.mcc!

The idea of this class was born during developing my Gregor application.

MUI abstract public custom class that allowing easy handling of time. Because
it is abstract it is only usefull for developers working with classes that are
based on Time.mcc (like TimeString.mcc), or those who want to build their own
Time.mcc based classes.

Time.mcc features:
- Handles daylight savings time
- Handles time zones
- Supports MUIM_Import and MUIM_Export
- Supports drops of other time objects and time-strings
- The time can be read in hour/minutes/seconds format or as seconds from
  midnight on
- The time range can be restricted
- It's possible to notify a Date.mcc object when the next or previous day
  was reached
- Method to set the current time
- Methods for increasing and decreasing the time
- Method to compare with another time object



IMPORTANT NOTE:

This package may not be included on any further Aminet CD-ROMs unless authors
contributing their software to the CD-ROM, (without mentioning distribution
"NoCD") are granted a copy of the CD *completely* *free* *of* *charge*.

The Meeting Pearls IV CD-ROM demonstrates that a Freebie policy is also
possible with "very-low-budget" CD-ROMs (*), so Aminet should quickly
re-establish the same Freebie policy it used up to Aminet CD 13.
