Description:
============

This is an AfterStep look & feel analog clock for X Windows.

Why do we need a yet another clock? Hmmm... It's simple.
I could not find a clock that I could customize to my Wharf
in a decent way. I got frustrated and so I wrote one.

I wear an analogue watch and I am not at all used to reading
the digital watches and clocks. It takes only a glance on
the analogue watch to know what the time is and it takes a while
to read the digital watch. There is a beautiful "asclock"
for those who like digital watches. I needed an analogue clock.

The tool shows a usual analogue clock dial almost in the center.
Actually, I tried first to make one that would be right in the center 
but couldn't. It's pretty hard when you have 54x54 background.
So, I gave up and decided that I will have it "intentionally"
moved away from the center. The top left corner contains the
day-of-week indicator. The bottom line is used to display
the current date.

The program may be used directly or in the Afterstep "wharf". It also 
supports the WindowMaker docker (-withdrawn option). It may be used 
in all other window managers as well. It runs well as an icon.
