!Clock/!Help/ReadMe

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

Legal Copyright Notice
----------------------

This program (written by Stuart Ford, it's Help program (written by Loring) 
and the Interface module (written by Simon Huntington) are independent of 
each other and purely Public Domain as long as no code or data is changed in
any way.

Introduction
------------

This, another PD clock program, does not take up ANY space on the icon bar,
nearly no space in your work area and will always be in the same place,
sitting on the top left hand side of your iconbar, whatever mode you are in.

Instructions
------------

To start !Clock, double click in the usual way on it's Filer icon. The window
will appear immeadiatly after loading. Pressing MENU on the clock will
produce a menu no less. From this you can access the information window and
you can finish the program from here.

Changes
-------

Since 1.00 for 1.01

The clock window cannot be brought to the front by sending another window
 behind it. It now behaves like the icon bar except that it does not extend
 or reduce itself according to what mode it is in.
