[foxboro] Current Date & Time

Does anyone know of a way to set a block parameter (i.e. SN0001 of a DEP
block) to the current system date and time?  I can do it with an
external shell script executed from a display command; however, I want
the date/time to be updated based on another block parameter, not an
operator action.  On a related note, does anyone know of a way to
execute a shell script from an I/A block?
