Enter new time (hh:mm:ss):
TIME defaults to 24-hour format, but you can optionally enter the time in 12-hour format by appending a, am, p, or pm to the time you enter. For example, to enter the time as 9:30 am:
time 9:30 am
The day of week and the month are translated into your local language (English, French, German, Italian, Russian, and Spanish).
Options:
"..." | Custom date / time format to use when displaying the current time. The formatting characters are the same as used by the @DATEFMT function. |
/T | Displays the current time but does not prompt you for a new time. You cannot specify a new time on the command line with /T. If you do, the new time will be ignored. |
