New 'clock present' WPS tag: The tag checks for the presence of the clock hardware and can be used unconditionally (returning a 'c') or in a conditional. You can specify what to display if a target has the clock (the true case) and an alternative for targets without. This can be useful for e.g. the greyscale 160x128 WPSs or the Archos ones which work on players with and without the hardware. - Add the new tag to the WPS tag description in the manual. Change the headline to the less technical 'Time and Date' as per the discussion in IRC.

+The \%cc tag returns ``c'' if the necessary hardware is present and can also be
+used as a conditional. This can be very useful for designing a WPS that works on
+multiple targets, some with and some without a clock. By using this tag as a
+conditional it is possible to display current date and time on those targets that
+support this
