I deleted watch.inf in "/DD" and watch created a watch.inf file, setting 
the year to 1987.

I used DED to set the first byte to $13 (19) which should give a date of 
"2019" which was displayed by watch.

But, date -t gives me March 19, 1919. ????? What is happening in 
NitrOS-9 I do not understand.

DED shows $13 $03 $13 $12 $1A $00

So, just changing "19" to "20" may not be the only fix needed.

I just got an disassembly which I will be looking at to try and figure 
out what is happening. I thought it was done.
