[PD] time/date

On linux and probably OSX and bsd you can get to time and date from
/proc/driver/rtc, use [file copy] to copy /proc/drive/rtc to a temp file
and then read that temp file into [text], then just grab the needed fields
from the [text]. This will work on most any linux and if it does not work
on OSX/BSD they will have this somewhere in /proc/ or /sys/, been too long
since I have used either of them but I think they have /proc/driver/rtc, no
clue about Windows.
