 You solved one of my issues. I did not think of the %-d.
 %d generates a leading 0 for numbers below 10. So I used %e the adds a leading
 space vor numbers below 10, I then replaced the double space by a single
 space in a later string handling.

   Thanks.

 I generate " for %A, %B %-d, %Y -- Day number %j : "

 and then i used sed to replace ' for .* : ' with the above gnerated date
 string. This edits only the date dependent parts, The CRC is untouched.

 As for the CRC, it can be used to see if the file has not been altered.
 As far as I have found makenl only checks the CRC when a diff file is applied.
