Introduction
Kclock is a clock for the KDE environment. With Kclock you
can :
-
show or hide the date
-
show or hide the seconds
-
select 12 or 24 hour format
-
select analog or digital appearance
-
change font for the digital clock
-
activate a three-dimensional appearance
-
make it beep and speak every hour
-
save all the options, included the dimension and the position of the clock
-
change fore/back colors
-
copy time & date on the clipboard simply clicking with middle mouse
button in the kclock window
-
remove the window border
-
modify the hour and the date of the system ( calling the new "kcmclock"
kcontrol module )
What's New
-
The Kclock calls a separated application (kcmclock), instead of the "Date
& Time" dialog.
-
"Get time from the net" is removed because there are too many problems with
it :-(
-
Speech !! Kclock tells the time every hour trough your audio card ;-)
-
Added new translations ( see "po" directory for more information )
-
more and more...
Notes
-
Use Utopia bold font for better result with the digital display
-
Kclock works with KDE beta4 and qt library version 1.33

If you have any trouble to change system time & date, check out the
"kcmclock" program in .../kde/bin directory.

the kclock area.
-
To move the kclock without the windows title simply click on it while moveing
