| Has any clever filepro programmer, written a routine to convert a Unix 
| Timestamp to a date/time and also to convert a date/time to a Unix 
| timestamp.  If it matters, this is running on SCO Openserver, with 
| filepro 5.0 or later (can't remember if they had 5.6 or 5.0 right off 
| the top of my head.)
| 
| I find I am working on a project where one customer tracks by Unix 
| timestamp and another tracks by Date/Time and they need to exchange data.
| 
| I understand the Unix timestamp meaning but did not want to reinvent the 
| programming to translate, if someone has worked it out already.

I've got a little binary here, ctime:

	# ctime 1388278701
	Sat Dec 28 19:58:21 2013

Can't append binaries here, but I'll CC it to you.

As for the other way, don't recall if I have anything here, I'll look.
