Alternate Time Functions for Keran's Weather and Time Package

This is the Time Functions object from Keran's Weather and Time code package rebuilt using an adjustment of the built-in system time, rather than the configurable calender designed by Keran. This is NOT meant as a slight to Keran, but, her time code doesn't properly represent our 'uneven' Gregorian system. If you want all her wonderful coded additions, and still have 'proper' modern Earth time, this object should work for you.

@@ This is an alternate Time Functions Object for Keran's weather and time code package.
@@ It is concurrent with the existing 4.0 system. Keran's code is REALLY great for
@@ customizable time. It's not nearly as good if you want the spiffy 'extra' systems
@@ to run on a basic alternate "real world" time system (ie: our modern Gregorian calender
@@ either in the future or past). This object should function 'as is', *except* that the
@@ leap year calculation function does not yet seem to be working. You should use this as
@@ a 'clean' Time functions object (ie: @wipe it or use a fresh object), otherwise you will have
@@ alot of useless functions stored.

@@ The following two functions are the ones that set the accelerated time.
@@ Change the multiple of Vsecs to what time rate you want (presently set to 5:2, as 2.25).
@@ Generate vtime and vsecs as user-defined functions off the God char or a wiz object
@@ to make them accessable to everyone.
