Here's some elisp which does them separately... what I use:
(defun now ()
"Insert string for the current time formatted like '2:34 PM'."
(interactive) ; permit invocation in minibuffer
(insert (format-time-string "%-I:%M %p"))
)
(defun today ()
"Insert string for today's date nicely formatted in American style,
e.g. Sunday, September 17, 2000."
(interactive) ; permit invocation in minibuffer
(insert (format-time-string "%A, %B %e, %Y"))
)
Put these in a file in your emacs path. Do "M-x today" or "M-x now" to
invoke. Also, it should be obvious how to integrate the two.
hth,
ken
