buici-clock - attractive X11 clock
SYNOPSIS
buici-clock [ -geometry geometry ]
DESCRIPTION
buici-clock displays an attractive, analog, X11 clock. Among the many digital clocks and analog clocks with peculiar display artifacts,
buici-clock intends to stand out as a stylish, low-overhead clock.
OPTIONS -geometry geometry
This standard X11 options specifies the position and size of the clock; see X(1).
USAGE
What's to say. This release of buici-clock offers no customizable features. It has a white clock face, black markers, a black border, and
a red second hand with a circular pointer. The minute and hour hands are black and rectangular. Some may recognize the form from Swiss
railway clocks.
RESOURCES
Because this program doesn't use a toolkit, it recognizes only the resources specified here.
showSecondHand
Is a boolean indicating whether or not the second hand will display. Note that in the current version of buici-clock, disabling
the second hand does not prevent an update of the clock face every second.

oclock - round X clock
SYNOPSIS
oclock [-option ... ]
DESCRIPTION
Oclock simply displays the current time on an analog display.
OPTIONS -fg color
choose a different color for the both hands and the jewel of the clock
-bg color
choose a different color for the background.
-jewel color
choose a different color for the jewel on the clock.
-minute color
choose a different color for the minute hand of the clock.
-hour color
choose a different color for the hour hand of the clock.
-backing { WhenMapped Always NotUseful }
selects an appropriate level of backing store.
-geometry geometry
define the initial window geometry; see X(7).
-display display
specify the display to use; see X(7).
-bd color
choose a different color for the window border.
-bw width
choose a different width for the window border. As the Clock widget changes its border around quite a bit, this is most usefully
set to zero.
-shape causes the clock to use the Shape extension to create an oval window. This is the default unless the shapeWindow resource is set
to false.
-noshape
causes the clock to not reshape itself and ancestors to exactly fit the outline of the clock.
-transparent
causes the clock to consist only of the jewel, the hands, and the border.
COLORS
If you would like your clock to be viewable in color, include the following in the #ifdef COLOR section you read with xrdb:
*customization: -color
This will cause oclock to pick up the colors in the app-defaults color customization file: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults/Clock-color.
Below are the default colors:
Clock*Background: grey
Clock*BorderColor: light blue
Clock*hour: yellow
Clock*jewel: yellow
Clock*minute: yellow

Hi,
Anyone ever write a unix clock program that display the clock out in 7 segment LCD style.
I tried doing one with case statements:
!/usr/bin/ksh
clock=`date`
case $clock in
#This prints out the number 0

echo " -"
echo "| |"

Hi,
Is there a chance that the clock() call returns 0 eternally???
Using BSD. My RTOS application freezes inconsistently only on particular hosts. When debugging it, I came to see that the RTOS timer does not tick at times. The underlying system call is clock() & it always returns zero when the... (4 Replies)
Hi there!!!
Need your help in solving some tricky problems.
Since clock() as such is buggy on SUN OS 5 we have started using gettimeofday() in our RTOS applications based on Solaris 9.
The problems we actually encountered previously were - the applications kind of freeze/hang eternally on... (1 Reply)
I'm accessing the TSC register, and using usleep() function to calculate my clock frequency. Basically, I check the current clock, delay for 1 second, and then check the clock again to discover how many clock ticks occur in a second.
The only problem is - my result turns out to be a... (1 Reply)

The book The Design of the Unix Operating System speaks of a clock or timer that is used in scheduling. The clock generates interrupts that update priority information for processes and preempt processes in a round-robin fashion. It's apparent that this "clock" is not the same thing as the CPU...

I have a peculiar problem (aren't they all?). A new program that uses X11 fails to get any ButtonRelease event reported to it after the XNextEvent call. That is, mouse clicks don't work. The program gets others, such as exposure and keyboard events, but not button press or release. Other... (4 Replies)
