Question xclock face?


Can you make xclock use an analog/round clock face with numbers, not only lines?

I can't see any option to do that (see man page).

Only for the digital clock.
Quote:
-strftime format
This option allows an strftime(3) format string to be specified for the digital clock's display.
-face pattern
This option specifies the font to use in digital mode when the Xrender extension is used.

Maybe try oclock(1), it can do what you ask for except for having numbers.

The only thing I was asking about was numbers. Oclock is even worse.

I don't really understand what is your goal, but probably you can find something useful here: https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/X1...ks/!INDEX.html

I installed Cairo Clock and normal analog clock themes like Accuracy, Bright, London, Quartz, Rauland. Unfortunately, they don't have second hands though.
