Revision History
----------------
10-20-88 v1.5
Changed for compilation under Zortech C++.
Zortech's printf function tends to get quite confused when a %s parameter
contains certain characters. Recoded to output descriptions character-by-
character. Hopefully this will eliminate all possibility of descriptions
being lost due to garbage characters.
01-03-88 v1.6
Fixed a bug that prevented stamping a file dated after 1-31-88.
