: Prodos has a date table which needs to be updated every seven years.
: You have to download the clock patch to fix the date table so that
: it works properly.  It should be on the Tarnover site.  I believe the
: file is called "pdosclockup.shk".  If you need it, I can email it to you.

I looked around the Tarnover web site, but couldn't find any program that
does that. There were some clock-card update utilities, etc.. but it
looked like those programs were for something else, and not for
y2k/prodos-v2.0.3 updates. Can you email me that file? Thanks.
