Nigel, for your information, it might be of value to know that (on Intel/Leopard):


After a 'write (current date) as date to fRef'
then:
	read file filePath as date
	result > (current date)
returns true!

I.e: Despite it shows as a 1904 date, has class date, it is corrupt so that it compares to a date in the distant future; this is in spite of the fact that 'year of' that date returns the negative value '-5877610'.

For me, the fact that 'year of' is not 1904, plus that it compared to a date in the distant future, made that bug remain "silent" for so long. Yesterday I released a new version, which also is Leopard compatible.


Regards,
