    The following example scales and prints a relative time.

    utc_t       relutc, scaledutc;
    struct tm   sacledreltm;
    char        timstr[UTC_MAX_STR_LEN];

     * Assume relutc contains the time to scale.
     * Scale it by a factor of 17...
     */

    utc_multime(&scaledutc,          /* Out: Scaled rel time     */
                &relutc,             /* In:  Rel time to scale   */
                17L);                /* In:  Scale factor        */

    utc_ascreltime(timstr,           /* Out: ASCII rel time      */
                   UTC_MAX_STR_LEN,  /* In:  Length of input str */
                   &scaledutc);      /* In:  Rel time to convert */

    printf("%s\n",timstr);
