NAME

       date@ - prints the date on a remote host.

SYNOPSIS

       date@ [ host ]

DESCRIPTION

       date@  connects to TCP port 13 (Daytime) on host and prints any data it
       receives. It removes CR (\015) and converts unprintable characters to a
       visible format.

       If host is not supplied, date@ connects to the local host.

       Some  computers  respond  to  port  13  with a human-readable date. For
       example, they may be running

              tcpserver -RHl0 0 13 date

       using tcpserver.
