        SYNTAX

        #include <sys/types.h>
        #include <sys/timeb.h>
        ftime(tp)
        struct timeb *tp;


        DESCRIPTION

        This interface is obsoleted by gettimeofday(2).

        Ftime fills in a structure pointed to by its argument, as defined
        by <sys/timeb.h>:

             /*
              *  Structure returned by ftime system call
              */
             struct timeb
             {
                     time_t time;
                     unsigned short millitm;
                     short timezone;
                     short dstflag;
             };

        The structure contains the time since 00:00:00 GMT, January 1,
        1970 (in seconds) up to 1000 milliseconds of more-precise
        interval, the local time zone (measured in minutes of time
        westward from Greenwich), and a flag that, if nonzero, indicates
        that Daylight Saving time applies locally during the appropriate
        part of the year.
