- Simple Clock (sclk.exe) Version 1.00 - February 11, 1996.
- ------------
-
- My wife didn't care for the appearance of any of the many available OS/2 clocks,
- and wanted to draw her own. So I wrote an extremely simple clock: all I
- provide are the hands, and you, the user provide the face.
-
- Just drag any .bmp file of your choosing onto the clock icon, and it will open
- with that picture. You can also drag a .bmp file onto a running clock if you want
- to change it.
-
- Or, to run from the command line, just type "sclk xxx.bmp".
-
- The right mouse button will bring up a small options menu on the clock face. When
- you select "Close", the program will remember the location and size of the clock
- for the currently displayed bitmap file.
-
- I've included a face that my wife did using Windows Paint, and several (of
- dubious quality) that I did in my struggles with POVRAY.
-
- This program is FREEWARE, and uses the EMX run-time library, which you can
- find at "hobbes.cdrom" as "emxrt.zip".
-
- If enough people find it useful, I plan on adding additional options and features,
- such as the ability to change the style of the hands, or to set alarms.
-
- Also, please email me if you have any problems, as I've only been able to test so
- far on my own machine.
-
- Thanks,
-

- ------------------
- The location of the clock was not being properly saved and restored. I believe I
- have now fixed the problem.
