	The default time format in BIOSIG uses a 64-bit fixed point format with
	reference date 01-Jan-0000 00h00m00s (value=0).
	One unit indicates the 2^(-32) part of 1 day (ca 20 us). Accordingly,
	the higher 32 bits count the number of days, the lower 32 bits describe
	the fraction of a day.  01-Jan-1970 is the day 719529.

      	floor(ldexp(T0-floor(T0),32));  // fraction x/2^32; one day is 2^32

      	The following macros define the conversions between the unix time and the
      	GDF format.

	Mode: "a" is append mode,
		if file exists, header and eventtable is read, 
		position pointer is set to end of data in order to add 
		more data. If file is successfully opened, the header structure 
		of the existing file is used, and any different specification in 
		hdr is discarded.  
		If file is not compressed, it can be used for read and write, 
  		for compressed files, only appending at the end of file is possible.
		Currently, append mode is supported only for the GDF format.

	hdr should be generated with constructHDR, and the necessary fields
	must be defined. In read-mode, hdr can be NULL; however,
	hdr->FLAG... can be used to turn off spurious warnings. In write-mode,
	the whole header information must be defined.
	In append mode, it is recommended to provide whole header information, 
	which must be equivalent to the header info of an existing file. 
	After calling sopen, the file header is read or written, and
	the position pointer points to the beginning of the data section
	in append mode, the position pointer points to the end of the data section.

 	hdr->FLAG.UCAL = 0 	scales the data to its physical values
 	hdr->FLAG.UCAL = 1 	does not apply the scaling factors

 	hdr->FLAG.OVERFLOWDETECTION = 0 does not apply overflow detection
