#
# THE MONTH IS 1-BASED, AND THE YEAR IS THE FULL YEAR
# (i.e., $mon++; $year += 1900; is not required)
&LocalTime::setTime({ year => $year,
month => $mon,
day => $day,
hour => $hour,
min => $min,
sec => $sec,
tz => $tz
});
# ...
($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = &LocalTime::localtime();
