Re: XGS32

Well, I thing the clock problem is related to where the programmer lives. I
live in Sydney, Aust. and my clock comes up sixteen hours slow, every time I
start the XGS emulator. Seems that equates to about GMT - 6 hours, or
eastern seaboard USA time (I think, approx??). Has the clock routine been
hard coded to read the time from windows as GMT, then subtract six hours?
Just an observation.

My win 95 machine runs XGS32 quite well, but my NT workstation at work
doesn't (Yet). I still have some tinkering to do to get it to go on NT. The
original XGS version 0.50 I had runs OK in a dos window in Win 95 also, but
this version is much better. Thanks for the excellent work done.

Cheers
