Why do you want to know what time it is?
From article sessions transcript in Appendix A:
https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.06707#page=17
it looks like the emulated 7094 or CTSS time is 19?/20?14-01-08 ~19:15-19:21,
and the previous login was Xmas Eve the *SAME* year 19?/20?14-12-24 ~00:48?

From other articles, it appears to respond to input with W[ait?] and the time,
and when the program has completed with R[eady?] and CPU minutes used?
