XARCLOCK(1) X Version 11 XARCLOCK(1)
NAME
xarclock - extended xclock(1)
SYNOPSIS
xarclock [-roman] [-arabic] [-south] [-north] [-analog] [-digital] [-chime] pixels] [-fg color] [-bg color] [-hd color] [-hl color] [-bd
color] [-fn fontname] [-help] [-padding pixels] [-rv] [-update seconds] [-display displayname] [-geometry geom]
DESCRIPTION
The xarclock program displays the time in analog or digital, reverse or normal form. The time is continuously updated at a frequency which
may be specified by the user. This program is based on the program xlock(1) that is distributed together with the X11 release and is noth-
ing more than a wrapper around the Athena Clock widget.
This program is an extension of the standard X clock widget. New features are: Configurable direction of rotation and font support in ana-
log mode.
OPTIONS
Xarclock accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options along with the additional options listed below:
-roman This option specifies that roman digits should be used on an analog clock.
-arabic
This option specifies that arabic digits should be used on an analog clock. This is the default
-south This option specifies the direction the clock will turn, on the southern half of the earth the 3, early afternoon, is on the left
side. This is the default.
-north This option specifies that the clock will behave like xclock(1).
-analog
This option indicates that a conventional 12 hour clock face with tick marks and hands should be used. This is the default.
-digital (or -d)
This option indicates that a 24 hour digital clock should be used.
-chime This option indicates that the clock should chime once on the half hour and twice on the hour.
-hd color (or -hands color)
This option specifies the color of the hands on an analog clock. The default is black.
-hl color (or -highlight color)
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.
-fn fontname
This option sets the name of the used fonts on the analog clock to fontname.
-help This option indicates that a brief summary of the allowed options should be printed on the standard error.
-padding pixels
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.
-update seconds
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 less than 30 seconds will enable a second hand on an analog clock. The default
is 60 seconds.
X DEFAULTS
This program uses the Athena Clock widget. It understands all of the core resource names and classes as well as:
width (class Width)
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.
height (class Height)
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.
update (class Interval)
Specifies the frequency in seconds at which the time should be redisplayed.
foreground (class Foreground)
