[comp.windows.x] XCLOCK or DCLOCK for different time-zones

shmulevi@naurulokki.tut.fi (Ilya Shmulevich) (10/14/90)

What do you think is the easiest way to have two clocks on the screen with different times? That is, they would be running using different time zones. I guess one way to do it is to run one clock off a different shell with the variable TZ set to another time zone. Is there an easier way?

  Thanx a lot,

Get xchrono from any comp.sources.x archive, i.e. gatekeeper.dec.com
or uunet.uu.net. It allows/displays multiple clocks each displaying a
different timezone and is relatively configurable.
