.TH dclock 1 .SH NAME dclock \- digital clock .SH SYNOPSIS \fBdclock\fP [ \fB\-cmjd\fP ] [ \fB\-s\fP\fIslant\fP ] [ \fB\-t\fP\fIthickness\fP ] [ \fB\-f\fP\fIrate\fP ] .SH DESCRIPTION \fIDclock\fP displays a scalable digital clock. The time is updated from the local host clock every minute as a background process. The current date is displayed across the top of the window in the format .TP 8 \ Sat Aug 16 1986 .PP (or some subset of such if there's not enough room). Options to control the clock's appearance, size and placement are as follows: .TP 16 \fB\-c\fP Display in 12-hour format (\*(lq\fIc\fPivilian\*(rq time) \(em the default. .TP \fB\-m\fP Display in 24-hour format (\*(lq\fIm\fPilitary\*(rq time). .TP \fB\-j\fP \*(lq\fIJ\fPohn's flag.\*(rq Puts a tail on the digit `9'. .TP \fB\-d\fP Do \fInot\fP display the current \fId\fPate across the top of the clock view. .TP \fB\-b\fP Display a \fIb\fPorder (horizontal line) between the date string and the time display. .TP \fB\-T\fP Do \fInot\fP display the \fIT\fPime in the clock view (leaving just the date). .TP \fB\-s\fP\fIslant\fP Set the \fIslant\fP of the digits. A \fIslant\fP of 100 (the maximum) corresponds to a slant of one digit width. A \fIslant\fP of 0 (the minimum) is vertical. Default is \fB\-s30\fP. A special form is \fB\-s\fP, which is equivalent to \fB\-s0\fP. .TP \fB\-t\fP\fIthickness\fP Set the \fIthickness\fP of the digit segments. Allowable values are between 5 and 25. A \fIthickness\fP of 25 results in segments which are one quarter (25%) of the digit width. Default is \fB\-t15\fP. .TP \fB\-f\fP\fIrate\fP Set the \fIrate\fP at which the segments fade when the time changes. A value of 0 is fastest and 4 is slowest. Default is \fB\-f4\fP. A special form is \fB\-f\fP, which is equivalent to \fB\-f0\fP. .PP To exit \fIdclock\fP, type a `q' in the window.
