So why not just use "date" and "time" from
under every dosemu instance you need to set
whatever time you need?

What is the problem exactly? Why, to have the
different time in your dosemu sessions, you
somehow want to set it from linux and not from
the DOS side?

Sorry, I believed that I was being clear. Here is another try:

I want to change the Date/Time of *one* dosemu instance without 
affecting Linux's time. Is this the default behaviour? If so that is all 
I need ;-)

In fact it works, but is it safe? will dosemu time go on just normaly?

Re: After daylight savings time "TIME" returning previous time

Without restarting dosemu?

There is a new $_timemode option in CVS.
$_timemode="linux" may do the trick.

Hi Stas,

This will not do. What I need is to Edit/Compile in one dosemu with 
normal time and another for debug with the time needed.

I was thinking that as the timer is being worked upon, this could be 
considered...
