[pilot-db-list] Global Scripts? Script for viewing current date data?

Dear all,

   I have Pilot-DB 1.1.3 on my old Palm m105, working fine for years.

   I have successful created databases that use script/calculations.

   I created a database for logging daily events:

   Field 0: Date (default = current)
   Field 1: Time (default = current)
   Field 2: Note

   In order to have dates and times sorted correctly, I had to change
   the config of my Palm to display dates as YY/MM/DD. (Or else, it
   would sort months as 1,10,11,12,2,3,4... ).

   ANyway, I want to create a filter to view only TODAY'S info.

   SO I created a Global Scritp with the following function:

   (eq (int %0)(int (gcd)))

   That is: if the date in column 1 (%0) equals the current date
   (gcd)...

   ...But when I type it in to a new Global Script, Pilot-DB says
   "Invalid Initialization".

   It does work, however, if I put it in a Calculated field (returning
   0 or 1, for False or True).

   How must a Global Script initialize?

   How can I make a filter to view only the information for the
   current date?

   Where can I find documentation about Global Scripts? (documentation
   at SourceForge is from 2002 and doesn't have Global Scripts).
