NAME
stime, biasclock - set time
SYNOPSIS
int stime(tp)
long *tp;
biasclock(milli)
long milli;
DESCRIPTION
Stime sets the system's idea of the time and date. Time, pointed to by
tp, is measured in seconds from 00:00:00 GMT Jan 1, 1970.
Biasclock informs the system that its idea of the time should be incre-
mented by milli milliseconds. The system will make the adjustment
gradually and without causing time to run backwards.
Only the super-user may use these calls.
