+.SH NAME
+xclock \- analog / digital clock for X
+.SH SYNOPSIS

+\fBxclock\fP [ \fB\-help\fP ] [ \fB\-analog\fP ] [ \fB\-digital\fP ]
+[ \fB\-chime\fP ] [ \fB\-hd\fP \fIcolor\fP ]

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.I xclock
+program displays the time in analog or digital form. The time is continuously
+updated at a frequency which may be specified by the user.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.I Xclock
+accepts all of the standard X Toolkit command line options along with the
+additional options listed below:
+.TP 8
+.B \-help
+This option indicates that a brief summary of the allowed options should be
+printed on the standard error.
+.TP 8
+.B \-analog
+This option indicates that a conventional 12 hour clock face with tick marks
+and hands should be used. This is the default.
+.TP 8
+\fB\-digital\fP or \fB\-d\fP
+This option indicates that a 24 hour digital clock should be used.
+.TP 8
+.B \-chime
+This option indicates that the clock should chime
+once on the half hour and twice on the hour.
+.TP 8
+\fB\-hands\fP \fIcolor\fP (or \fB\-hd\fP \fIcolor\fP)
+This option specifies the color of the hands on an analog clock. The default
+is \fIblack\fP.
+.TP 8
+\fB\-highlight\fP \fIcolor\fP (or \fB\-hl\fP \fIcolor\fP)
+This option specifies the color of the edges of the hands on an analog clock,
+and is only useful on color displays. The default is \fIblack\fP.
+.TP 8
+.B \-update \fIseconds\fP
+This option specifies the frequency in seconds at which \fIxclock\fP
+should update its display. If the clock is obscured and then exposed,
+it will be updated immediately. A value of 30 seconds or less will enable a
+second hand on an analog clock. The default is 60 seconds.
+.TP 8
+.B \-padding \fInumber\fP
+This option specifies the width in pixels of the padding
+between the window border and clock text or picture. The default is 10
+on a digital clock and 8 on an analog clock.
+.SH X DEFAULTS
+This program uses the
+.I Clock
+widget. It understands all of the core resource names and classes as well as:
+.PP
+.TP 8
+.B width (\fPclass\fB Width)
+Specifies the width of the clock. The default for analog clocks is 164
+pixels; the default for digital clocks is whatever is needed to hold the
+clock when displayed in the chosen font.
+.TP 8
+.B height (\fPclass\fB Height)
+Specifies the height of the clock. The default for analog clocks is 164
+pixels; the default for digital clocks is whatever is needed to hold the
+clock when displayed in the chosen font.
+.TP 8
+.B update (\fPclass\fB Interval)
+Specifies the frequency in seconds at which the time should be redisplayed.
+.TP 8
+.B foreground (\fPclass\fB Foreground)
+Specifies the color for the tic marks. The default is depends on whether
+\fIreverseVideo\fP is specified. If \fIreverseVideo\fP is specified
+the default is \fIlwhite\fP, otherwise the default is \fIblack\fP.
+
+.TP 8
+.B hands (\fPclass\fB Foreground)
+Specifies the color of the insides of the clock's hands. The default is
+depends on whether
+\fIreverseVideo\fP is specified. If \fIreverseVideo\fP is specified
+the default is \fIlwhite\fP, otherwise the default is \fIblack\fP.
+.TP 8
+.B highlight (\fPclass\fB Foreground)
+Specifies the color used to highlight the clock's hands. The default is
+ depends on whether
+\fIreverseVideo\fP is specified. If \fIreverseVideo\fP is specified
+the default is \fIlwhite\fP, otherwise the default is \fIblack\fP.
+.TP 8
+.B analog (\fPclass\fB Boolean)
+Specifies whether or not an analog clock should be used instead of a digital
+one. The default is True.
+.TP 8
+.B chime (\fPclass\fB Boolean)
+Specifies whether or not a bell should be rung on the hour and half hour.
+.TP 8
+.B padding (\fPclass\fB Margin)
+Specifies the amount of internal padding in pixels to be used. The default is
+8.
+.TP 8
+.B font (\fPclass\fB Font)
+Specifies the font to be used for the digital clock. Note that variable width
+fonts currently will not always display correctly.
+.SH WIDGETS
+In order to specify resources, it is useful to know the hierarchy of
+the widgets which compose \fIxclock\fR. In the notation below,
+indentation indicates hierarchical structure. The widget class name
+is given first, followed by the widget instance name.

+.B DISPLAY
+to get the default host and display number.
+.TP 8
+.B XENVIRONMENT
+to get the name of a resource file that overrides the global resources
+stored in the RESOURCE_MANAGER property.
