25 ;;; Commentary:
27 ;; Time values come in three formats. The oldest format is a cons
28 ;; cell of the form (HIGH . LOW). This format is obsolete, but still
29 ;; supported. The two other formats are the lists (HIGH LOW) and
30 ;; (HIGH LOW MICRO). The first two formats specify HIGH * 2^16 + LOW
31 ;; seconds; the third format specifies HIGH * 2^16 + LOW + MICRO /
32 ;; 1000000 seconds. We should have 0 <= MICRO < 1000000 and 0 <= LOW
33 ;; < 2^16. If the time value represents a point in time, then HIGH is
34 ;; nonnegative. If the time value is a time difference, then HIGH can
35 ;; be negative as well. The macro `with-decoded-time-value' and the
36 ;; function `encode-time-value' make it easier to deal with these
37 ;; three formats. See `time-subtract' for an example of how to use
38 ;; them.
