NAME

       xdaliclock - melting digital clock

SYNOPSIS

       xdaliclock

DESCRIPTION

       The  xdaliclock  program displays a digital clock; when a digit changes, it melts into its
       new shape.

       This program was inspired by the Alto and Macintosh programs of the same name, written  by
       Steve Capps in 1983 or 1984.

COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS

       --display host:display.screen
           The X display to use.

       --version
           Print the version number and exit.

       --root
           Render on the root window instead of opening an application window.

       --window-id number
           Render on an existing X11 Window instead of its own window.

GESTURES

       Single click
           Display the date.  It will also be briefly shown about once a minute.

       Double click
           Switch between 12-hour and 24-hour mode.

       Right click
           Open the preferences dialog.
