<div dir="ltr">Of all those, the one that confuses me is the date
one. Does os.date() open a command-prompt window on Windows? Is
the goal to present the date in the user's preferred locale
format? Or is it to get a sortable value for the date? (Or some
other reason?)<br>

yes, the date result from Powershell is also used for other things
that os.date() can't do.<br>
For example, it is also used for a "is PowerShell available at all?"
check.<br>
So it depends a bit on which of the other functions are converted to
built-in RGP Lua functions.<br>
If all other functions are available through RGP Lua, I think I can
find a workaround with os.date().<br>
