  Description
  
  The xclock command gets the time from the system clock, and
  displays and updates it  in  the  form  of either a digital or an
  analog clock.
  
  Flags
  
  -analog	Sets the analog display mode, which is the default mode.
  Draws  a  conventional  12-hour  clock  face  with ticks for each
  minute and stroke marks on each hour.
  
  -b Number	Specifies the width in pixels of the padding between
  the window border and the clock text  or picture.  The default is
  10 in the digital clock and 8 on an analog clock.
  
  -bd Color	Specifies the border color on color displays.  The de-
  fault is black.
  
  -bg Color	Specifies the color of the background on color
  displays.  The default is white.
  
  -bw Number	Specifies the width in pixels of the border.  The de-
  fault is 1.
  
  -chime	Specifies the sounding of a chime once on the half hour
  and twice on the hour.
  
  -digital	Sets the digital display mode.  Displays the date and
  time in digital form.  The default is analog.
  
  -display Host:Number	Identifies the host name and display number
  where the clock is to run.  Normally the host  name  and  display
  number are found in the DISPLAY environment variable.
  
  -fg Color	Determines the color of the text and tick marks on
  color displays.  The default is black.
  
  -fn Font	Specifies a font for use instead of the default font.
  Any fixed-width font can be used.  The default is Rom14.
  
  -geometry Geometry	Specifies the location and dimensions of the
  window as defined in the geometry specifications.
  
  -hd Color	Specifies the color of the hands in analog mode on
  color displays.  The default is black.
  
  -help	Prints a brief summary of the allowed options.
  
  -hl Color	Specifies the highlight color.  For example, the out-
  line  of  the  hands of the analog clock can be highlighted  with
  this color.  The default is black.
  
  -padding Number	Specifies the width in pixels of the padding
  between the window border and the clock text or picture.  The de-
  fault is 10 on a digital clock and 8 on an analog clock.
  
  -rv	Reverses the foreground and background colors.
  
  -update Seconds	Specifies the frequency in seconds that the
  xclock command updates its display.  If the xclock window is ob-
  scured and then exposed, the xclock command overrides this and
  redisplays  immediately.    The default update  frequency  is  60
  seconds.   The  specification of an update frequency greater than
  30 seconds disables the second hand in the analog mode.
  
  -xrm ResourceString	Specifies a resource string to use.

  Use the following keywords to set the defaults for the xclock
  command.  See  Using .Xdefaults Keywords in User Interface Pro-
  gramming Concepts Volume 1 for specific information about how to
  use  keywords  to  set defaults such as the color, location,  and
  size of windows.
  
  analog	Specifies an analog clock instead of a digital clock.
  
  background	Specifies the color of the background on color
  displays.
  
  border	Determines the color of the highlighted border on color
  displays.
  
  borderWidth	Specifies the width of the window border in pixels.

  color displays.
  
  geometry	Specifies the location or dimensions of the window.
  
  hands	Specifies the color of the hands in the analog clock on
  color displays.
  
  height	Specifies the height of the clock.  The default for the
  analog clock is 164 pixels.  The default for the digital clock is
  whatever is needed to hold the clock when displayed in the chosen
  font.
  
  highlight	Specifies the color of the outline of the hands in the
  analog clock on color displays.
  
  mode	Specifies whether the xclock command starts a digital or
  analog clock by default.
