I have figured out how to place a date stamp on my PDFs (outside of the printable area bounded by crop marks) but I would ideally like to include the time of processing as well.  I don't see anything like the plain TeX primitive \time (and when out of curiosity I tried '\the\time' this returned a mysterious number - today it is '691' - which doesn't seem relevant).

Use \currenttime, the following example shows also how to use the result of the \time command.

\starttext

Current time: \currenttime

\blank

At the moment
\the\numexpr\time/60\relax\space
hours and
\the\numexpr\time;60\relax\space
minutes have passed since midnight.

\blank

At the moment
\the\time\space
minutes have passed since midnight.

\blank

\calculatecurrenttime % set values for the time commands

At the moment
\currenthour\space
hours,
\currentminute\space
minutes and
\currentsecond\space
seconds have passed since midnight.

\stoptext
