Please have a look at the documentation to the function:What steps do you take to get the time to appear in your modeline? I've messed with this and _never_ been able to get the time to appear in mine.
From menu: Options Customize Emacs Specific options display TAB Then setting 2 of these options should put '(display-time-day-and-date t) '(display-time-mode t nil (time)) into your .emacs custom-set-variables section. There is also the function display-time-string-forms with which I haven't messed.Btw, this is in version 21.3. Newer versions certainly have the same functionality.
