&SYSTIME and the AREAD statement

The &SYSTIME variable symbol is provided by High Level Assembler and Assembler H, but not by earlier assemblers. It provides the local time of the start of the assembly in HH.MM format. This time stamp may not have sufficient accuracy or resolution for some applications.

High Level Assembler provides an extension to the AREAD statement, discussed in more detail in AREAD clock functions, that may be useful if a more accurate time stamp is required.

System variable symbols describes all the system variable symbols.
