- Clock 0.03 (01-Dec-1993)

- This program is provided free of charge. There is no warranty, express,
- implied, or otherwise. 'Clock' reserves the right to go wrong at any moment
- with no prior warning. Any damage, loss of money, loss of sleep, legal
- expenses, sudden deaths, chocolate biscuits, etc. caused by use or misuse of
- 'Clock' are not my problem.

- Hah! Another clock. Serves you right. Probably guaranteed the smallest clock
- ever, seein' as if it was any smaller it'd be completely unreadable. Probably
- one of the shortest ever as well, at under 4k. It also should be very fast
- on redraw (but who cares?) and take very little processor time.
-
- Erm, double-click on the module, the clock'll appear above the switcher icon
- on the iconbar. Well, strictly it's not actually on the iconbar, it's just
- over that area of the screen. But it shouldn't make much difference.
-
- Oh, and there's options too... Set the system variable 'Clock$Options' with
- the following format:
- *Set Clock$Options [<xpos> [<ypos>]] [-24hrs] [-bg <colour>] [-back|-front]
- [-left|-centrex|-right] [-top|-centrey|-bottom]
- The xpos and ypos are in OS units from the bottom left. If you precede the
- number with an 'r' or a 't' (for right or top) then it'll mean from the right
- or the top. eg. 'r48 104' means 48 OS units from the right, 100 OS units from
- the bottom. By default you're specifying the position of the middle X-ways
- and the bottom Y-ways.
-
- -24hrs makes it so it's a 24 hour clock. (Stunning cunning.)
- -bg <colour> sets the background colour of the clock.
- -back sets the 'back' attribute of the window so it's stuck at the back.
- -front makes the clock come to the top every so often.
- -left, -centrex and -right specify what the X-coordinate means.
- -top, -centrey and -bottom specify what the Y-coordinate means.
-
- "*Set Clock$Options 0 0 -front -left" is quite a nice setting if you don't
- like it over the switcher icon, and has the advantage of being visible all
- the time.
-
- This program hasn't been tested very much at the moment, so if it dies
- suddenly don't be too alarmed ;-)
-
- Hmm, that's about it I suppose. Ah well. Another couple of hours down the
- tube. Better get back to WimpExtension II before Andrew throws a wobbly...
