Hi C,
I am using Raku's NativeCall. It only talks to .so's
and .dll's.
I could use time.h if I was programming in C, but I am
not. I suppose if I understood C better, I could
root around in time.c and find where time.c call
the system.

I'm not sure if I walked off the beaten track, but does this example help? (i was looking at it out of interest and noticed it)
