Obtaining the current system time

[strupp1]

Is there an EFS term or command that will allow you to identify the current system time in terms of minutes and hours?

I've done several searchs online and unfortunately, the only command I can find are the getHour() and getMinute() commands but those relate to the timestamp of the current bar ... which, if it's a 30-minute bar (for example), would not be the current time but rather the time when that bar was started.

Any thoughts?
