Edit ~/.blackboxrc

Look for the line:
session.screen0.strftimeFormat: %I:%M %p

If you want to just display 24 hour time:
session.screen0.strftimeFormat: %H:%M

(Don't add :%S for seconds, Blackbox doesn't seem to update seconds)

Here's what I use:
session.screen0.strftimeFormat: %H:%M - %d/%m/%y (e.g. 10:21 - 23/01/01)

(BTW: 'date --help' only seems to work on lunix, just displays the date on my
FreeBSD box)
