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.

Screenshots using various settings:

Default

Hex time mode w/ pixmaps

Whoopee! Swatch!

Old Worldy Binary

Decimal with different fonts (including Braille)

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 ffff^th 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)
