Can anyone tell me if cygwin has a function like "ftime" (the man 
entry from a Unix box (Sun). Follows. Help would be greatly 
appreciated.
TIA

------------------ man entry for ftime (among other things)
 ftime() fills in a structure pointed to by tp, as defined in
     <sys/timeb.h>:
          struct timeb
          {
               time_t   time;
               unsigned short millitm;
               short    timezone;
               short    dstflag;
          };

     The structure contains the time since the epoch in  seconds, up 
     to 1000 milliseconds of more-precise interval, the local time 
     zone  (measured  in  minutes  of  time  westward  from
     Greenwich), and a flag that, if nonzero, indicates that Day-
     light Saving time applies  locally  during  the  appropriate part
     of the year.
