<p>
<a href="gypsy-GypsyTime.html#GypsyTime"><span class="type">GypsyTime</span></a> is used whenever the client program wishes to know about
GPS time changes. It can report the current GPS time, and has a signal
to notify listeners of changes.
</p>
<p>
A <a href="gypsy-GypsyTime.html#GypsyTime"><span class="type">GypsyTime</span></a> object is created with <a href="gypsy-GypsyTime.html#gypsy-time-new"><code class="function">gypsy_time_new()</code></a> using the 
D-Bus path of the GPS device. This path is returned from the 
<a href="GypsyControl.html#gypsy-control-create"><code class="function">gypsy_control_create()</code></a> function. The client can then find out about the
GPS time with <a href="gypsy-GypsyTime.html#gypsy-time-get-time"><code class="function">gypsy_time_get_time()</code></a>.
</p>
<p>
As the GPS time information changes <a href="gypsy-GypsyTime.html#GypsyTime"><span class="type">GypsyTime</span></a> will emit the 
time-changed signal. This signal contains the GPS time of the most recent
GPS update that it received.
</p>
