    Is there any OS/2 experts out there???

    I use an OS/2 VM, Arca Noae, and I'm using FD/2 FE/2 and Irex/2 to send and receive mail. Anyway, I have a line in an old batch file I use to run on any windows maching, or DOS machine.... BTW it still works on my windows 10 machine.

    for /f "delims=" %%x in.... See it in the section beclow??

    :Start

    @echo off
    :start
    cd\Somewhere
    for /f "delims=" %%x in ('date /t') do set date=%%x
    del joes.asc
    echo %Date% >>JOES.ASC

    ..... Much Much Much deleted....

    goto ad

    :ad
    PM /I:JOES.ASC /T:All /S:BBS AD %date% /C:21
    :Stop

    That line captures the current date and then I can add it into my BBS ad txt file....

    Anyway, is there a similar command for OS/2??

    Thanx

    Joe
