CONST
ANT
CONSTANT [name]
[value] allows
for the
recording of
values
which
don't
change
when
the

changes
.
CONST

are
part
of
the
main
CITIle
denition.
Users

not
dene
their

Use

The

CITIle

dened
the
following
constant:
CONST
ANT
TIME
[year]
[month]
[day]
[hour]
[min]
[secs]
Example:
COMMENT YEAR MONTH D
A
Y
HOUR MINUTE SECONDS
CONST
ANT
TIME
1991 02 26 17 33 53.25
The
COMMENT
statement
is not
absolutely
required,
but
is
highly
recommended
to aid readability
.
The year should always be the full four digits (\1991" is correct,
but
\91" is not). This is to avoid problems with the year 2000,
when the
shortened version of the year will be \00."
The hour value should be in 24-hour \military" time
.
When writing a CITIle and the fractional seconds value is zero
,then
the \seconds" value may be printed either with or without a decimal
point: either \47.0" or \47" would be acceptable. When reading
a CITIle, the seconds value should always be read as if it were a
oating point number.
