Install it, go to an xterm and run it with swisswatch.  It makes a
cute watch, reminiscent of the clocks at european train stations.  If
you check the man page, it tells you how to configure it from the
command line.

I was on a Boston to New York shuttle flight that gets stuck on the runway for 
3 hours
with no explanation. Worse, I'm sitting in front of three idiot consultants 
from Razorfish
who spend the whole time talking loudly and incessantly. Remarkably, not one 
word of it
resembled any productive activity in the slightest. 'So, I conducted a series 
of group
discussion sessions to quantify how they establish their procedures.' 'But, 
Bianca, how
did you formulate the framework for evaluating their paradigms?'
My favorite line - Bianca is irate because a client asked her for some 
concrete
bit of information: 'Can you believe that? Hello? I'm an Information Architect, 
not a
Knowledge Engineer!' --dump() on slashdot

[apt-cache show swisswatch]

Description: The mother of all X Toolkit clocks.
 Swisswatch is a reimplementation of der Mouse's mclock program using
 lightweight X Toolkit objects (gadgets).  It relies heavily on
 resources for configuration, and can assume a wide range of looks.
 The application defaults files distributed with swisswatch currently
 support an oclock emulation, a Swiss railway clock emulation, and a
 fancy default appearance.  You are encouraged to play with the
 resources and create your personalized version.
   
 how to use it once installed.
Run man swisswatch.

Regards, sena...
