Getting the time in the csh prompt means modification to the source.
The mods are relatively minor, but are too big to patch in.

The more general way would be to have the prompt routine (I forget the
name offhand) do back quote interpretation.  I took the easier
route, and modified the routine to replace occurrences of $T in
$prompt, with the time in the form HH:MM.  If you or others would
like the mod's I can mail them.
