***** DSCRESAV *****
		(for ZCPR3 systems)
	DateStamper CREate-date SAVer program:

	In the use of DateStamper, one annoying problem arises: when editing 
an existing file, the new version takes on a new create date, and the original
creation date is lost.  This can make the tracing of the history of source 
files difficult.

	DSCRESAV is best called from an alias where it is invoked both before
and after an existing file is edited. It may also be used in conjunction with 
other programs which modify existing files, and in the process, create a new
copy.

AN example alias (taken from my alias.cmd file, run by the ecp, arunz:)
vi=ED.IT if ex $1;a0:dscresav $1 $$r;lzed $1;a0:dscresav $1 $$w;else;lzed $1;fi

Thus by typing: ed filenam.typ, the create date is saved, lzed is invoked,
and upon exiting lzed the ORIGINAL create date is restored to the new file.
The 'modified' date stamp reflects your editing procedure.
