 I copied the executable (wintime.exe) and a brief wintime.README to the
/pub/incoming directory, and it said the transfers were successful, but I
can't see the files. Is this the usual behavior?

 The object of this exercise, in case I haven't made it clear, is to
determine whether Windows is providing a correct time value for fits_write_date()
to write. Based on the code I've seen, cfitsio 2.201, the only way for
fits_write_date() to be off by an hour is for gmtime() to be off by an hour,
and this little program is a way to test whether that's the case.
