;;; Commentary:
+;; Time values come in three formats. The oldest format is a cons
+;; cell of the form (HIGH . LOW). This format is obsolete, but still
+;; supported. The two other formats are the lists (HIGH LOW) and
+;; (HIGH LOW MICRO). The first two formats specify HIGH * 2^16 + LOW
+;; seconds; the third format specifies HIGH * 2^16 + LOW + MICRO /
+;; 1000000 seconds. We should have 0 <= MICRO < 1000000 and 0 <= LOW
+;; < 2^16. If the time value represents a point in time, then HIGH is
+;; nonnegative. If the time value is a time difference, then HIGH can
+;; be negative as well. The macro `with-decoded-time-value' and the
+;; function `encode-time-value' make it easier to deal with these
+;; three formats. See `time-subtract' for an example of how to use
+;; them.
