I'm writing a script containing several "adb shell" command. I also want to record the time when program execute these command in a form of realtime and uptime. I know I can get uptime and realtime through SystemClock:

SystemClock.uptimeMillis();
SystemClock.elapsedRealtime();

Is there any way I can get these information from the command line?

Thanks a lot!
