 ;# ctime.pl is a simple Perl emulation for the well known ctime(3C) function.
+#
+# This library is no longer being maintained, and is included for backward
+# compatibility with Perl 4 programs which may require it.
+#
+# In particular, this should not be used as an example of modern Perl
+# programming techniques.

+# Suggested alternative: the POSIX ctime function
