Hi everyone,

Does anyone know how I could set the date and time from with in a full screen Gambas application?

I ask this as my system does not have any desktop installed (I have x11 installed and that is it)

I'm thinking I would need a way to verify the date and time is correct if not I would want to be to update it from my app and not need to connect a keyboard to run terminal commands

Any advice would be welcome

 Don't follow. Do you want to set the date/time to what someone thinks is the right time to use or to the correct time?
If the latter then this is an operating system matter and not something your application should be dabbling in. Search ntp.

In :? my opinion, since we have the "date" or "rdate" command available from the Terminal to operate on the system date and time, you could use Gambas 'Shell' function.

Good point. But are we talking about the application timeframe or reality?
