Dear Gambit list,
I'm using Gambit on Unix, and I'd like to store some real time data
with a date stamp.
(current-time) seems appropriate, but I'm not sure I understand the
treatment of leap seconds -- particularly leap seconds inserted.
Is (current-time) output monotonic (assuming a monotonic system
clock), or will the output go back in time during leap seconds?
What are proper functions to extract a date from (current-time) ? Is
it guaranteed to use the Unix Epoch when running on Linux?
