     Based mostly on the code clock_main.c that is distributed with
     the application launcher called tycoon, written by Roman Mitnitski
     <mitnits@shani.net>


 INSTALL

     0. You will need at least version 0.81 of the  XForms  library.   There
 are
        some incompatibilies with  earlier  versions.   You  could  probably
 change
        the code to build under earier versions if you really wanted to...

     1. Edit xfclock.c to change a few options

        o You can execute a single command by clicking on the clock.  I use
          it to run a calendar program.

        o You can set the default size of the clock (80x80 is good).

     2. $xmkmf; make

        If you do not have xmkmf, I have provided a simple Makefile

     3. Copy xfclock to the location of your installed binaries
        (e.g., /usr/local/bin)
