Requirements
============

This program needs the arp.library to run.  Make sure it is in
the LIBS drawer of your boot-disk.  Clock will not run without it
and will exit quietly.


1. Introduction
===============

    I've seen 'm all (at least I think I have...):  the mouse
accelarators, the clocks etc...  They either were overkill
(MachII or MachIII), where written in C or didn't have all the
features I wanted (I know, I'm picky).


2. Usage
========

   Clock can be run in two ways. You can start Clock from the CLI
like this:

        1> run >NIL: Clock <options>

The options have to be preceded by a minus sign and can not be
combined as one string:

s|S     Turn the SunMouse feature on or off (default is on)
b<n>    Set the time before the screen blanks (in seconds)
        (default is 3 minutes). Specify -b0 to turn this feature
        off.
a<n>    Set the mouse acceleration factor
t<n>    Set the mouse acceleration threshold
x<n>    Set the clock x position (default the clock is positioned
        right for Workbench 1.3. Use -x408 for Workbench 2.0.)
y<n>    Set the clock y position (by default the is positioned
        in the screen's menubar).
c|C     Turn the clock and memory display on or off (default is
        on).
m|M     Turn the screen shuffle feature on or off. This option
        allows you to shuffle through the screen using
        left-Amiga-m (default is on).
e<cmd>  This command takes everything that follows the -e as the
        command to be executed when left-Amiga-Esc is pressed.
        By default this is the NewCLI command.  I usually use
        -eNewWsh.
        NOTE: if specified this option has to be the last one
              specified

If you type 'Clock ?' you get the following help message:

        Clock v1.11 by Peter Stuer - March 29, 1991 FREEWARE
        Usage: run >NIL: Clock [options]
        Options (preceded by a minus sign)
                s|S     Turn SunMouse on|off
                b<n>    Set screen blank time (in seconds)
                a<n>    Set mouse accel factor
                t<n>    Set mouse accel threshold
                x<n>    Set clock x position
                y<n>    Set clock y position
                c|C     Turn clock on|off
                m|M     Turn screen shuffle on|off
                e<cmd>  Set pop-up command string

3. How to quit
==============

    Clock's display window has a closewindow gadget. If you click
this ONLY the window gets closed. All other features including
the PopCLI command stay active. This allows you to remove to
clock window so that you can close the Workbench.

    To completely remove the clock press:

        Left-Amiga + Ctrl + Q

The screen will beep to signal that Clock really has quit.
