getUniversalTime

Function: getUniversalTime { -> milliseconds }
file: 10-C-utils.muf
package: muf
status: alpha

The getUniversalTime function is specified by the CommonLisp standard as the name for .sys$s.millisecsSince1970:

: getUniversalTime .sys$s.millisecsSince1970 ;

Making the date-and-time available as a property makes it easier to find by browsing, and reduces the number of hardcoded primitives in the server; Making it available as getUniversalTime meets the expectations of experience lisp programmers and will eventually support a Muq Lisp compiler.

See section date. See section time. See section printTime.
