        Converts system clock units to seconds.

    cal_$decode_ascii_date (string, stringlength, year, month, day, status)
        Decodes an ascii string containing a date specification.

    cal_$decode_ascii_time (string, stringlength, hour, minute, second, status)
        Decodes an ascii string containing a time specification.

    cal_$decode_ascii_tzdif (string, stringlength, tz_dif, tz_name, status)
        Decodes an ascii string containing a time zone difference specification.

    cal_$decode_local_time (decoded_clock)

    cal_$decode_time (clock, decoded_clock)
        Decodes given clock into year, month, day, hour, minute, second.

    cal_$encode_time (decoded_clock, clock)
        Encoded year, month, day, hour, minute, second into system clock units.

    cal_$float_clock (clock, float_seconds)
        Converts a system clock representation to a double precision floating point
        value, expressed in seconds.

    cal_$get_info (timezone_info)
        Returns system time zone info (name and offset from UTC.)

    cal_$get_local_time (clock)
        Returns local time, in system clock representation.

    cal_$sec_to_clock (seconds, clock)
        Converts seconds to system clock units.

    cal_$weekday (year, month, day), weekday = ...
        Computes day of week.
