NAME
mongoclock - Just a humongous clock for the terminal
SYNOPSIS
mongoclock [-s]
DESCRIPTION
Type mongoclock in the terminal and it will either,
depending on the terminal size, show the time HH:MM
or HH:MM:SS with humongous digits.
If the terminal is too small, it will not run.
mongoclock is designed to be fit on most screens
and be readable from all practical distances, so
that it can be used in place of a standard wall-
or alarm-clock. If the font is not big enough for
your (or if it is too large,) just change the
font size on your terminal. If it is not the
right colour for you, simply change the font
colour on your terminal. ☺
OPTIONS
The mongoclock utility shall conform to the Base
Definitions volume of POSIX.1-2008, Section 12.2,
Utility Syntax Guidelines.
The following options shall be supported:
-s Display the posix time (seconds since
1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC, ignoring inserted
and removed leap seconds).
RATIONALE
It is really nice to have a large clock on your
computer, instead of a small clock somewhere in
your room, when your are sleeping. It is also
nice to have a glansable clock available on your
netbook for when you need to keep track of the
time but are not working on a computer.
Pocket-watches are just too much work to getting
up, opening, closing, and putting down, and you
would not like to forget it when you leave if
you are in a public place.
