Is there a way to have the date function return the time down to the

Perl's Time::Hires module certainly does this. Date doesn't, but the
c
library function gettimeofday() gives you down to microseconds (in
theory).
How about:
date +%H%M%S%N | cut -c1-8
When did the %N format for date appear? Must be one of them newfangled
1980s inventions.
