Introduction

    NISClock is a small clock program that displays the time and date
    on the active public screen. Locale.library is used to format the
    time and the date that you define. The text of your choosing (the
    time by default) is displayed in a small window that matches the
    screen's title-bar colour, or as a screen gadget button look-alike.
    A mouse click on the window will display a second text (usually the
    date).

    The E-Clock timer is used to time the update intervals so that
    the time is always updated even if the clock is adjusted backwards.

    NISClock is written in C, and compiled with SAS/C 6.58.

  Screen Notification

    NISClock can make use of Stephan Becker's screennotify.library which
    patches a few intuition.library functions so that the clock will
    automatically close its window if the Public screen that it inhabits
    is closed by another program. If NISClock is on the Workbench screen,
    it will be notified of the close and opening of the Workbench screen
    by IPrefs for a preferences change or by any other program which calls
    CloseWorkbench().  The window will then not open until OpenWorkbench()
    is called.

  Other Options

    Other options include window position, justification of the text within
    the window, a specified amount of time (seconds) to update the clock
    display, and the ability to avoid certain public screens.

Requirements

    NISClock has the following simple requirements:

      - Amiga OS V37 (2.04). Uses V39 features if present.
      - locale.library.
      - RECOMMENDED: screennotify.library by Stephan Becker. See
       'Installation' for more information on screennotify.library.
      - NISClock must be run from the Workbench; perfect for the WBStartup
       drawer.
