Dear OMS:

  I suggest to provide the millisecond time field in future BlackBox 1.5.
Namely, I suggest to change Dates.Time from

  Time* = RECORD
    hour*, minute*, second*: INTEGER (*BB 1.4 and 1.5 beta *)
  END;

to

  Time* = RECORD
    hour*, minute*, second*, millisecond*: INTEGER (*BB 1.5 *)
  END;

The Windows system procedure KERNEL32.GetSystemTime provides this
information.

Motivation: in data logging applications the one-second resolution is not
good enough.

For the CookBook: I am now implementing the millisecond timer, and I will
send a HowTo message to the CookBook when I am done.

Thanks,

W.
