Hi -
Another idea, depending on what you want this for, is to use the
symbols SESSION_DATE and SESSION_TIME which are set when Ferret starts
up, and which contain the date and time when you started the Ferret
session.
yes? show symbol session*
SESSION_DATE = "20-Jan-09"
SESSION_TIME = "10:39"
yes? let date = "($session_date)"
!-> DEFINE VARIABLE date = "20-Jan-09"
yes? let datetime = "($session_date) ($session_time)"
!-> DEFINE VARIABLE datetime = "20-Jan-09 10:57"
etc.

would this work for you?
let date =
{spawn:"date +%j"}
list date
There is a section on spawn command in the manual.
