NAME
wmbinclock - A binary clock applet for Window Maker
SYNOPSIS
wmbinclock [options]
DESCRIPTION
wmbinclock is a dockable binary clock applet for Window Maker, it shows
the current system time (in 24-hour format) as a classic binary display
where you have to add up the bits to get the actual time.
OPTIONS
-h --help
Show summary of options.
-m --mode
Select display mode (horizontal or vertical).
-i <color> --coloron=<color>
Color to use for drawing the dots when they are lit. (One of:
gray neonred gold cyan pink blue green darkred none.)
-o <color> --coloroff=<color>
Color to use for drawing the dots when they are not lit. (One
of: gray neonred gold cyan pink blue green darkred none.)
-d <color> --colordate=<color>
Color to use for the date.
-s <on|off> --superfluous=<on|off>
Display superfluous leds in the panel (default: on).
-display <display name>
Use an alternate X display.
EXAMPLES
wmbinclock shows the current system time as a panel of bits, just like
the classical meatspace binary clocks.
The default panel (vertical mode) looks like this:
+ + + + + + <- 8
+ + + + + + <- 4
+ + + + + + <- 2
+ + + + + + <- 1
H H M M S S
You have to add the individual bits for each column to get the decimal
number for the column. The six columns show the current time in
24-hour format. For example:
+ + + + + + <- 8
+ + o + + o <- 4
o + + + o o <- 2
+ o o + o o <- 1
2 1 5 0 3 7
It’s currently 21h50 and 37 seconds.
The horizontal panel also shows the date:
+ + + + + + <- Hour
+ + + + + + <- Minute
+ + + + + + <- Second
+ + + + + + <- Day
+ + + + + + <- Month
For example:
+ * + * + * <- 21
* * + + * + <- 50
* + + * + * <- 37
+ + * * + * <- 13
+ + + * * + <- 06
