Creates date metadata on the specified mark of entities.

entity_type: The type of entities contained on the mark.; The undef entity type is used to store metadata on the model itself.
mark_id: The ID of the mark containing the entities to which the metadata will be added. Valid values are 1 and 2.
name: The name by which the metadata will be referenced.
value: The date value assigned to the metadata. This is the number of seconds since the epoch (i.e., January 1st 00:00:00 1970).

To add metadata named Date with the current time in seconds since the epoch:

*createmark undef 1 
*metadatamarkdate undef 1 "Date" [clock seconds]
