setdate -- a crude way to set the date syntax: setdate <month> <day> <year> <hours> <minutes> [-p] ex: setdate 4 10 88 22 40 --April 10, 1988 at 10:40 pm setdate 4 10 88 10 40 -p --same date setdate 3 28 67 0 10 --March 28, 1967 at 12:10 am 'setdate' is a straightforward command for setting the ProDOS date and time. -p means "p.m." and is the same as adding 12 to the hours value. 'setdate' is useful only if your Apple does not have a clock card. (The Apple IIgs has a clock built in; if ProDOS does not know the time on your GS, it's because you are using ProDOS 1.1.1 or earlier.) If you want to be weird, you can type BF06:60 from the monitor to disconnect the clock driver from ProDOS.
