time
====
The 'time' commands set the NET internal time, and, optionally,
the PC's clock from the time on a remote server.
The commands are inline with the command line interpreter and
should only be issued when connected to the gateway.
N.B. You must set the "TZ" environment variable for the 'time'
commands to work correctly. UK users should set "TZ=GMT0BST".
