v_ptime

  Setting ptime to 1 displays a clock time before your server prompt.  This
clock time is useful if you are idling for long periods and want to know when
messages were sent to you.  Having ptime set to 0 (zero) means having the
usual prompt displayed.

WARNING! Some interfaces may not work with the clock time in the prompt, so be
careful.


SPECIAL NOTES:

(a) The ptime variable is _not_ related to the ptime command.  The ptime
command is used during a bughouse game when you want to know your partner's
time.
