If you are using the Motif version of CRiSP you can change keyboard mappings at a low level by using the X11 Xdefaults mechanism. You can use the Print icon to print the current buffer using the defaults you setup in the Printer setup menu. You can create a column of numbers using the 'number' macro. You can omit the trailing step number, in which case the default increment of 1 will be used. Clicking on the time status bar panel inserts the current time into the buffer.
Middle mouse clicking on the status bar inserts the current date.
