Thank you, that works very well. But I can't just grab the day of the week out as a variable. I also can't grab the year. I am trying to use my script to make the data available. Some of the commands (as the one you made so simple) are just there for troubleshooting.
Can you help me make my script work?

xtungrabpointer
XtUngrabPointer() XtUngrabPointer()
Name
XtUngrabPointer - release an active pointer grab.
Synopsis
void XtUngrabPointer(widget, time)
Widget widget;
Time time;
Inputs
widget Specifies the widget which has the active pointer grab.
time Specifies the time at which the grab should end. CurrentTime is acceptable.
Availability
Release 4 and later.
Description
XtUngrabPointer() releases an active pointer grab by calling XUngrabPointer() with the display of w and time.
The time argument may be a timestamp or the constant CurrentTime. If this time is earlier than the last-keyboard-grab time or later than
the current server time the keyboard will not be ungrabbed.
See XtGrabPointer() for more information on active pointer grabs.
Usage
Most applications will never have to issue a pointer grab. Note that the pointer is automatically grabbed between every button down event
and the corresponding button up event; this covers the case for which pointer grabs are most commonly needed.
