But still I don't know how to get the system time in OS/2 or non-DPMI DOS (I was using the DPMI call only to call a DOS int, since I'm not sure if calling int 21 directly is OK)
If all you need is system time, why do you go through all of the DPMI/int calls/&c, instead of just using extended Pascal's timestamp routines. Or are these not available because you are turning non-Borland features off when compiling these Borland-ish Units? Using gettimestamp() should work on all gpc platforms, right? I guess I must misunderstand what exactly you need for a 'system time.'
