[GAP Forum] command to retrieve current date/time

[Frederic Vanhove]

Hello,

I was wondering if there is any way to let GAP return the current date 
or time.

I know that using
time;
one can get the number of milliseconds the last operation took.

However, I would like to do a long computation, and I would want GAP to 
print from to time what he has done already and how long that has 
already taken.

Is that possible?

Many thanks,
Kind regards,
Frédéric
