 NAME
      fdate - return date and time in an ASCII string

 SYNOPSIS
      subroutine fdate (string)
      character*(*) string

      character*(*) function fdate()

 DESCRIPTION
      Fdate returns the current date and time as a 24 character string in
      the format described under ctime(3).  Neither `newline' nor NULL will
      be included.

      Fdate can be called either as a function or as a subroutine.  If
      called as a function, the calling routine must define its type and
      length. For example:

           character*24   fdate
           external       fdate

           write(*,*) fdate()
