[comp.windows.x] dclock widget

strike@convexs.uucp (Professor Fate) (10/14/88)

I pulled the dclock widget off comp.sources.x and compiled it -
everything works well on black and white displays but dclock does not
work at all on color displays. I get a protocol error.

I have tried it on a color Sun 3/110 and a color Apollo DN3000. Has
anyone else seen this problem, and if so, is there a fix available?

A "bugfree" version of dclock exists on expo and includes all
suggested enhancments by various x-people that I've received
(I think).  Anyway, the general rule of thumb for programs that
I post is that I also keep copies on expo.lcs.mit.edu -- I hope
that's generally accepted behaviour.  Note that the version on
expo may not match the posted version due to bug fixes and/or
other enhancements that I haven't bothered to repost.  Now, that
might not be viewed as accepted behoviour :-}
