WMZCalock
WMZCalock is a dockapp calendar clock for use with Window Maker and other X window managers on Linux, BSD, and other Unix-ish operating systems (it won't work on Windows). It features a number of different time modes and the ability to change its colors and fonts. It was written to suit my own needs; so if you're me, you should really enjoy it.

Features
WMZCalock has the following time modes:
- 24 Hour: The world standard and default mode.
- 12 Hour AM/PM: You're an American or just like making things more difficult for no good reason.
- Decimalized Time: The sensible alternative. See here for more info.
- "Internet Time": Slight (and silly) variation on decimalized time from Swatch. Know the exact time at Swatch's headquarters so you can be in sync with your corporate overlords.
- Hexidecimalized Time: Très geek! Count off every ffffth of a day. (This mode may be compatible with the Time Cube, however I have been educated stupid and so I wouldn't know about that.)
- Binary Time: Your first step to joining a hive mind.
See the decimal, hexidecimal, and binary modes in action with some JavaScript clocks.
WMZCalock has the following appearance features:- All colors are either specifiable or are set based on specified colors
- Optional shadow effects for LCDish look
- Uses fonts of your choice (defaults to the ever popular helvetica)
- Can use pixmaps for weekday/month and month day display, pixmaps are colorized to your color preferences at runtime (pixmaps for time not yet implemented)
- Meditative blank space near date to promote clarity of thought (at least until I think of something better to do with it)
