{{
# capture current time in variable now
now = date.Now

# depending on second, either with or without :
if now.Second  %2 == 0
    nowString = now | Format "HH:mm"
else
    nowString = now | Format "HH mm"
end

# variable to switch between output on the hour:min or min:sec digits 
outputAsHours = false
if (outputAsHours)
    # append with blanks for :00.000
    nowString = nowString + "       "
else 
    # prepend with HH: and append with .000
        nowString = "   " + nowString + "    "
