00062 $Log: ticktock.cpp,v $
00063 Revision 1.2  2001/07/26 12:02:24  mpeeters
00064 Removed nasty bug where time would run backwards in certain cases (see todo list).
00065 
00066 Revision 1.1  2001/05/22 10:54:55  mpeeters
00067 Moved sources and headers for libModel to model/ subdirectory, in an attempt to rationalize the source tree. This should make things "netter".
00068 
00069 Revision 1.2  2000/09/15 10:26:31  mpeeters
00070 Cleaned out header and added CVS tails to files, removed superfuous
00071 @author comments, inserted dates
