   I thought that meant "Hello".

   UTC+6 here this morning.  I suppose the majority of the people wanted DST.    
   Nobody asked me.

   I didn't get into the DOS part of it because at the time, I was more   
   interested in the BASIC functions it used.  Very similar to IBM or MS BASIC   
   and I had only that one Amiga BASIC program to convert.
