That should actually be pretty simple to do. The Linux system under the covers probably already has a built in clock command (even just using 'date' would work). You just need a script that you click on which prints out the local time.
I've got something kind of similar on my iLiad. I wanted to be able to look at the filesystem usage and see how much free space I had on the internal memory and any cards. I put a simple script on that I can click on which just executes a 'du' command and dumps the output. It would be trivial to do the same thing with a 'date' command as well on the iLiad. I assume similar functionality is possible on the DR.
I thought you were originally talking about a "real time" clock function that would continually update. Just being able to click on something to give you back the current time should be pretty straight forward.
