Assuming this is a tty ( tty1-6 for instance)
sudo -b vcstime
(or just `vcstime &` as root )
displays a clock in the top right corner of your tty
The script is interesting, but someone already thought of this, as above ... it's part of the console-tools package in Ubuntu, for example.
Probably the same package in Debian.
