   * source/rdd/hbsix/sxcompat.prg
     ! Fixed '&&' being used instead of '.AND.' in code.
     ; NOTE: This '&&' comment compatibility is a lot more 
             dangerous than it's useful. It'd vote for 
             a compiler warnings switch for any of it's 
             occurences.

* FT_EASTER()
* $CATEGORY$
* Date/Time
* $ONELINER$
* Return the date of Easter
* $SYNTAX$
* FT_EASTER( <xYear> ) -> dEdate
* $ARGUMENTS$
* xYear can be a character, date or numeric describing the year
* for which you wish to receive the date of Easter.
* $RETURNS$
* The actual date that Easter occurs.
* $DESCRIPTION$
* Returns the date of Easter for any year after 1582 up to Clipper's
* limit which the manual states is 9999, but the Guide agrees with
* the actual imposed limit of 2999.
*
* This function can be useful in calender type programs that indicate
* when holidays occur.
* $EXAMPLES$
* dEdate := FT_EASTER( 1990 ) // returns 04/15/1990
* $END$
