6.3.10 Format of the Computime Time String

The Computime time string is a sequence of 24 ASCII characters starting with the T character and ending with

the LF (line feed, ASCII Code 0Ah) character. The format is:

T:yy:mm:dd:ww:hh:mm:ss<CR><LF>

The letters printed in italics are replaced by ASCII numbers whereas the other

characters are part of the time string. The groups of characters as dened below:

T

Start character
