What does it do?

Well it reads the system time and can return hours, minutes, seconds and 
hundreds in exit codes. The main usage would be in a batch file  where it 
would be used to get the system time and put it in exit codes that a batch 
file could use to decide what to do on a specified time.

How to make it do what it can?

The switches

You can use both slashes (/) and minuses (-) before the commands.
To get the hours: /o
To get the minutes: /m
To get the seconds: /e
To get the hundreds: /n

To make wHat A tIMe silent use /s. 
E.g. wat /so
To get my email address you issue the command wat /c.
If you need help then just wat /h.

The magic it can do in a batch file

If You would like a batch file to do something on a specified time you 
could use a batch file similar to this below.

- -----cut--
@echo off
wat /so
IF ERRORLEVEL = 3 GOTO ccc
IF ERRORLEVEL = 2 GOTO bbb
IF ERRORLEVEL = 1 GOTO aaa
GOTO END
:aaa
rem Whatever You wish to do one o'clock
GOTO END
:bbb
rem Whatever You wish to do two o'clock
GOTO END
:ccc
rem Whatever You wish to do three o'clock
GOTO END
:END
- - ----cut--

It did not work?

It is not so very much I can do with that. Maybe you had some 
Antivirus utile running that blocked wHat A tIMe or maybe some
other security utile on your system, if you encounter this more
than once, please mail me and tell about it. 

Note !! wHat A tIMe will give the exit code 255 on an error.

What does it mean that this file is PGP signed?

I have signed this file and wat.com (wat.sig) with my PGP
signature, so that You have the opportunity to check wherever
some one has changed these files before you got them. Please report
