01-I-1994.

The indestructible setkey.prg gets another instance, and this is where I think my version begins to differ from mainstream of Sale. I'm removing all of the OnKeyLabel calls (so the hotkeys would be set by app specific code and not by the code set globally in this), so the thing actually becomes a misnomer: it does not set (hot) keys any more. It also doesn't launch the menu either, that's what tmenu.prg is for (which is building the menu on the fly from the menu.dbf, instead of relying on menus generated from the same table).

The setkey.prg was, for five years now, the general routine to set up the environment in an app, and as such it was part of the framework (first the DBA's, then my GenerAll). I kept using it until 2019, but to set my work environment (kill everything, set paths, launch my favorite add-ons), not inside any app.

Officially, there was a denomination today, another nine zeros. Nobody really cares, the news is as if of yesterday's snow. Later, the whole monetary insanity of 1993 will be discounted - i.e. when calculating the average of anything, this year does not count. Not for retirement staž, for example. The time counts, but your 1993 salary is not taken into calculation of your average.
