       date@ - print the date on a host

SYNTAX

       date@ [ host ]

DESCRIPTION

       date@  connects  to  TCP  port  13  (Daytime) on host and prints any data it receives.  It
       removes CR and converts unprintable characters to a visible format.

       If host is not supplied, date@ connects to the local host.

       Some computers respond to port 13 with a human-readable date.  For example,  they  may  be
       running

            tcpserver 0 13 date &
