svg-clock is an analog clock using Scalable Vector Graphics for rendering. This is an Emacs package.
In order to use svg-clock you need Emacs with SVG support.
Call `svg-clock’ to start a clock. This opens a new buffer “*clock*” displaying a clock which fills the buffer’s window. Use`svg-clock-insert’ to insert a clock programmatically in any buffer, possibly specifying the clock’s size, colours and offset to the current-time.
Arbitrary many clocks can be displayed independently. Clock instances are updated automatically. Their resources (timers etc.) are automatically cleaned up when the clocks are removed.
This is free and open source software.
