# this script was created in 3BBE.81[sft].
# usage:
# to convert to sfttime:
#	$0 [c date] [digitcount] [nodate]
#	if date is given, converts the given date to sfttime.
#	if date is not given, converts the current date to sfttime.
#	digitcount specifies the accuracy for the time part.
#	nodate hides the date part.
# to convert from sfttime:
#	$0 r sfttime [unix]
#	converts the given sfttime to 'standard' time.
#	if 'unix' is provided, the output will be in unix time.
# to show info about sfttime units
#	$0 i [[sft]]$num
#	displays name of unit [sft]$num, as well as it's value
#	in both days and 'standard' units.
