          standard Unix* date/time routines, _l_i_b_t_w_s will parse
          date/time strings into internal form.  The format for
          specifying date/time strings is pretty loose - basically the
          same as the format for date/times in network mail.

          Most of the routines do not use the Unix* "clock" time
          format, and therefore are not limited to dates after 01
          January 1970.  In particular, twsubtract() lets you subtract
          two dates without converting them to "clock" form.

          Most of _l_i_b_t_w_s came from version 6.5 of the MH message
          handling system, courtesy of Marshall Rose.  Some
          improvements (?) were added by Jef Poskanzer.

          The return values point to static data whose contents are
          overwritten by the next call.

          The basic Unix* time format (clock) only goes back to 1970,
          limiting applications somewhat.
