Here is a submission for the Useless HP48SX Demo Program Archive, an
analog clock. I execute << OFF CLOCK >> when I am done using my 48 for
a while.
MKFACE generates FACE, the background picture. You only need to run this
once. It takes about 15 secs to execute (ARCs are slow). [Note: You don't
have to run MKFACE; the disk already has FACE on it. See NFACE on the disk
for a new, improved clock face. -jkh-]
Once you have a FACE, you can run CLOCK every time you want to impress your
friends. [Just press CLOCK; it's ready to go. -jkh-]
Please send comments, bug fixes to squires@eecs.nwu.edu

To make the program work better in a control alarm I made a change in
the clock program: change {} PVIEW to { #0 #0 } PVIEW 7 FREEZE. [Note:
this change is already implemented on the disk version of CLOCK. -jkh-]
You can then store an alarm with a repeat of one min and a exec
of \<< DROP CLOCK \>>. Then the clock will update every min. [Note: see
ACLOCK for an implementation of this idea for a running clock, except this
one updates every second (!) and even show a second hand! -jkh-]
