DESCRIPTION
The xclock program displays the time in analog or digital form. The time is continuously
updated at a frequency which may be specified by the user.
OPTIONS
Xclock accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options along with the
additional options listed below:
-help This option indicates that a brief summary of the allowed options should be
printed on the standard error.
-analog This option indicates that a conventional 12 hour clock face with tick marks and
hands should be used. This is the default.
-digital or -d
This option indicates that a 24 hour digital clock should be used.
-brief This option indicates that the digital clock should only display the hours and
minutes fields. The default is to show the full time and date information.
-utime This option indicates that a digital clock should display seconds since the Epoch
(in format '970012340 seconds since Epoch' instead of a standard 24-hour time.
-strftime format
This option allows an strftime(3) format string to be specified for the digital
clock's display.
-twelve This option indicates that a digital clock should display the time in twelve hour
format.
-twentyfour
This option indicates that a digital clock should display the time in twenty-four
hour format. This is the default when a digital clock is used.
-chime This option indicates that the clock should chime once on the half hour and twice
on the hour.
-hands color (or -hd color)
This option specifies the color of the hands on an analog clock. The default is
black. This option is effectively ignored when Xrender is in use.
-highlight color (or -hl color)
This option specifies the color of the edges of the hands on an analog clock, and
is only useful on color displays. The default is black. This option is
effectively ignored when Xrender is in use.
-update seconds
This option specifies the frequency in seconds at which xclock should update its
display. If the clock is obscured and then exposed, it will be updated
immediately. A value of 30 seconds or less will enable a second hand on an analog
clock. The default is 60 seconds.
-padding number
This option specifies the width in pixels of the padding between the window border
and clock text or picture. The default is 10 on a digital clock and 8 on an
analog clock.
-render This option tells xclock to use the Xrender extension to draw an anti-aliased
face. This is the default if xclock has been compiled with Xrender support. Note
that the color selection options and resources used when Xrender is in effect
differ from the standard options.
-norender
This option turns off the use of Xrender to draw the clock.
-sharp This option tells xclock to use sharper edges when drawn using the Xrender
extension.
-face pattern
This option specifies the font to use in digital mode when the Xrender extension
is used. Patterns are specified using the fontconfig face format described in the
Font Names section of fonts.conf(5).
X DEFAULTS
This program uses the Clock widget. It understands all of the core resource names and
classes as well as:
width (class Width)
Specifies the width of the clock. The default for analog clocks is 164 pixels;
the default for digital clocks is whatever is needed to hold the clock when
displayed in the chosen font.
height (class Height)
Specifies the height of the clock. The default for analog clocks is 164 pixels;
the default for digital clocks is whatever is needed to hold the clock when
displayed in the chosen font.
update (class Interval)
Specifies the frequency in seconds at which the time should be redisplayed.
foreground (class Foreground)
Specifies the color for the tick marks. The default depends on whether
reverseVideo is specified. If reverseVideo is specified the default is lwhite,
otherwise the default is black.
hands (class Foreground)
Specifies the color of the insides of the clock's hands. The default depends on
whether reverseVideo is specified. If reverseVideo is specified the default is
lwhite, otherwise the default is black. Note that this resource is not used when
Xrender is in effect.
highlight (class Foreground)
Specifies the color used to highlight the clock's hands. The default is
depends on whether reverseVideo is specified. If reverseVideo is specified the
default is lwhite, otherwise the default is black. Note that this resource is not
used when Xrender is in effect.
analog (class Boolean)
Specifies whether or not an analog clock should be used instead of a digital one.
The default is True.
twentyfour (class Boolean)
Specifies whether or not a digital clock should display the time in twenty-four
hour format. The default is True.
chime (class Boolean)
Specifies whether or not a bell should be rung on the hour and half hour.
padding (class Margin)
Specifies the amount of internal padding in pixels to be used. The default is 8.
font (class Font)
Specifies the font to be used for the digital clock. Note that variable width
fonts currently will not always display correctly. This font is only used when
Xrender is not in effect.
render (class Boolean)
Specifies whether or not the Xrender extension should be used for the display. The
default is True if xclock has been compiled with Xrender support.
When Xrender is in effect, the following additional resources are understood:
face (class FaceName)
Specify the pattern for the font to be used for the digital clock when Xrender is
used. Patterns are specified using the fontconfig face format described in the
Font Names section of fonts.conf(5).
sharp (class Boolean)
Specifies if sharp edges should be used when rendering the clock. The default is
False.
buffer (class Boolean)
Specifies that the updates of the image are drawn to a pixmap before copied into
the window instead drawing them into the window directly.
The defaults of the following color resources depend on whether reverseVideo is specified.
If reverseVideo is specified the default is lwhite, otherwise the default is black.
hourColor (class Foreground)
The color of the hour hand.
minuteColor (class Foreground)
The color of the minute hand.
secondColor (class Foreground)
The color of the second hand.
majorColor (class Foreground)
The color of the major scale ticks (i. e. each five minutes).
minorColor (class Foreground)
The color of the minor scale ticks (between major ticks).
WIDGETS
In order to specify resources, it is useful to know the hierarchy of the widgets which
compose xclock. In the notation below, indentation indicates hierarchical structure. The
widget class name is given first, followed by the widget instance name.

ENVIRONMENT
DISPLAY to get the default host and display number.
XENVIRONMENT
to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources stored in
the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
