Desktop Clock? - eikelein - 11-07-2017
I want a nice analog clock face on my desktop. Call me old fashioned and you are spot on
In Synaptics Package Manager I found things like biuci-clock, fdclock and swisswatch. I especially like swisswatch because the example shown in Package Manager is exactly like what I would like.
I installed each of these but after successful installation I can not find either of those, not in the Application Finder, in the menus or by searching the .bin folder and not after restarting the system.
I am a relative newbie to Linux Lite and an almost total newbie to Linux in general.
Please, where do I go wrong, what am I missing or where has that question already been answered?
TIA

Click on Menu and type in:
swisswatch -geometry 200x200-18+37
You can have it start automatically when you log in too. Menu, Settings, Session and Startup, Application Autostart.
Add:
Name: Clock
Description: Clock
Command: swisswatch -geometry 200x200-18+37
Change the geometry (screen position) to suit you.
