NAME
       wmtime - Window Maker dockapp that displays the time and date

SYNOPSIS
       wmtime [ OPTION ]

DESCRIPTION
       WMTime displays the time and date and gives you some nice additional features too. It is intended for docking in Window Maker.

       It currently provides:

       o   the time and date;

       o   a realtime morphing interface (analog <> digital mode);

       o   auto-scaled and anti-aliased hands;

       o   localization, displaying the day and date in various languages;

       o   three user-defined commands to launch.

OPTIONS
       -d, -digital
	      Display the digital clock on startup, instead of the analog clock.

       -display display
	      This option specifies the X server to contact; see X(7x).

       -geometry geometry
	      This option specifies the preferred position of clock; see X(7x).

       -n, -noseconds
	      Disables the second hand.

       -h     Show help information.

       -v     Print the version number.

USAGE
       The WMTime window is separated into top and bottom sections.  The top section contains a clock and the bottom section contains the date.

       The clock can be toggled between analog and digital modes.  To do this, click in the bottom section of the window.

       WMTime  can  also  be used to launch programs.  You may click either left, middle, or right mouse buttons in the top section of the window.
       The pre-configured program will be launched according to the mouse button clicked.  (see CONFIGURATION FILE below.)

       In order to move WMTime, drag on the outer edges.  These are not sensitive to mouse clicks.

DOCKING IN WINDOW MANAGERS
       Window Maker

	      Window Maker users should drag and drop the WMTime window on the Dock.  Then, right-click on the border of  the  window  and  select
	      "Settings...".  Check "Start when Window Maker is started".

       AfterStep

	      AfterStep users should put the following in their $HOME/.steprc

		       Wharf wmtime - MaxSwallow "wmtime" wmtime &

       Other window managers

	      WMTime runs nicely as a 64x64 shaped icon on your desktop.

CONFIGURATION FILE
       WMTime  can  launch  three  user-defined commands, triggered by left, middle and right mouse button clicks.  You can define the commands to
       launch in $HOME/.wmtimerc

	      left: xterm
	      middle: xload
	      right: xcalc
       If WMTime detects a $HOME/.wmtimerc file, it will launch the appropriate command when you click on the clock.

       The system administrator can define default commands in /etc/wmtimerc.  The administrator may also choose  to  "fix"  particular  commands,
       making it impossible for users to change.  These commands can be defined in /etc/wmtimerc.fixed, although this isn't a nice thing to do.

FILES
       /etc/wmtimerc
       $HOME/.wmtimerc
       /etc/wmtimerc.fixed
