NAME

       xclock - analog / digital clock for X

SYNOPSIS

       xclock [-help] [-analog] [-digital] [-chime] [-hd color] [-hl color] [-update seconds] [-padding number]

OPTIONS

       xclock  accepts	all  of  the standard X Toolkit command line options along with the additional options listed below: This option indicates
       that a brief summary of the allowed options should be printed on the standard error.  This option indicates that  a  conventional  12  hour
       clock  face  with  tick marks and hands should be used.	This is the default.  This option indicates that a 24 hour digital clock should be
       used.  This option indicates that the clock should chime once on the half hour and twice on the hour.  This option specifies the  color	of
       the  hands on an analog clock.  The default is black.  This option specifies the color of the edges of the hands on an analog clock, and is
       only useful on color displays.  The default is black.  This option specifies the frequency in seconds at which  xclock  should  update  its
       display.   If  the  clock is obscured and then exposed, it will be updated immediately.	A value of 30 seconds or less will enable a second
       hand on an analog clock.  The default is 60 seconds.  This option specifies the width in pixels of the padding between  the  window  border
       and clock text or picture.  The default is 10 on a digital clock and 8 on an analog clock.

DESCRIPTION

       The  xclock program displays the time in analog or digital form.  The time is continuously updated at a frequency which may be specified by
       the user.

X DEFAULTS

       This program uses the Clock widget.  It understands all of the core resource names and classes as well  as:  Specifies  the  width  of  the
       clock.	The default for analog clocks is 164 pixels; the default for digital clocks is whatever is needed to hold the clock when displayed
       in the chosen font.  Specifies the height of the clock.	The default for analog clocks is 164 pixels; the default  for  digital	clocks	is
       whatever  is  needed  to  hold the clock when displayed in the chosen font.  Specifies the frequency in seconds at which the time should be
       redisplayed.  Specifies the color for the tic marks. The default depends on whether reverseVideo is specified.  If reverseVideo	is  speci-
       fied  the  default is lwhite, otherwise the default is black.  Specifies the color of the insides of the clock's hands. The default depends
       on whether reverseVideo is specified.  If reverseVideo is specified the default is lwhite, otherwise the default is black.   Specifies  the
       color  used  to	highlight  the clock's hands. The default  depends on whether reverseVideo is specified.  If reverseVideo is specified the
       default is lwhite, otherwise the default is black.  Specifies whether or not an analog clock should be used instead of a digital one.   The
       default	is  True.   Specifies whether or not a bell should be rung on the hour and half hour.  Specifies the amount of internal padding in
       pixels to be used.  The default is 8.  Specifies the font to be used for the digital clock.  Note that variable width fonts currently  will
       not always display correctly.

WIDGETS

       In  order to specify resources, it is useful to know the hierarchy of the widgets which compose xclock.	In the notation below, indentation
       indicates hierarchical structure.  The widget class name is given first, followed by the widget instance name.

       XClock  xclock
		       Clock  clock

ENVIRONMENT

       to get the default host and display number.  to get the name of a  resource  file  that	overrides  the	global	resources  stored  in  the
       RESOURCE_MANAGER property.

FILES

       specifies required resources

BUGS

       xclock believes the system clock.

       When in digital mode, the string should be centered automatically.
