[OS X TeX] time

[Claus Gerhardt]

I noticed that the Latex Companion's proposal didn't give the time in  
the form 20:04 (20:14 could be easily arranged). Hence, the following  
modification

RequirePackage{calc}
RequirePackage{ifthen}

\newcounter{hours}\newcounter{minutes}
\newcommand{\printtime}{%
\setcounter{hours}{\time/60}%
\setcounter{minutes}{\time-\value{hours}*60}%
\ifthenelse{\value{minutes}<9}{\thehours :0\theminutes}{\thehours: 
\theminutes}}


This is the \printtime.
