Dali Clock

==============================================================================
To build for the X Window System:
cd xdaliclock/X11/
./configure --prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install
==============================================================================
To build for MacOS X (10.4 or later) or iOS:
cd xdaliclock/OSX/
make
then copy "build/Debug/DaliClock.app" to your Applications folder.
Or, you can use the included XCode project.
==============================================================================
To build for the Pebble Smart Watch:
cd pebble
pebble build
(Assuming you have the Pebble SDK installed.)
==============================================================================
To build for Android devices:
Install JDK 7 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/)
Install Android Studio (http://developer.android.com/sdk/)
cd xdaliclock/android/
make
(or you can open "DaliClock" as a project in Android Studio)
Then copy "build/DaliClock.apk" to your Android device.
==============================================================================
To build for PalmOS Classic devices:
cd xdaliclock/palm/
./configure --host=m68k-palmos --build=`../X11//Xlib-classic/config.guess`
make CFLAGS="-O3"
Then install daliclock.prc on your device through your usual method.
If you don't already have a working PalmOS cross-compilation environment
set up, you'll need to install "m68k-palmos-gcc", "pilrc", "obj-res", and
"build-prc" first. This can be a lot of work -- you're on your own!
Check http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/ to find the things you need.
Check http://www.zenonez.com/prctoolsx/ for MacOS X build tools.
==============================================================================
To build for Palm WebOS devices...
You don't really have to "build" it, because it's all Javascript!

Handle exposure events in "-root -noseconds" mode.

2.18 29-Nov-1999 Oops, month number was off by one in the Palm version.
2.17 28-Nov-1999 Now uses `configure' instead of `Imake'.

that size...

PseudoColor visuals when using `-transparent'.
Some portability fixes for OpenVMS.
Added `xdaliclock.spec' so that everyone builds their

2.09 02-Jun-1997 Renamed -shape to -transparent, and made it use
SERVER_OVERLAY_VISUALS if available -- that makes the
option actually be *usable* on SGIs and on advanced HP,
DEC, or IBM systems (since overlay visuals actually
work, unlike the Shape extension.)
2.08 30-Aug-1996 Fixed a lingering bug where sometimes clicking would
not cause the date to be displayed.
2.07 23-Feb-1996 Added WM_COMMAND property for session management.

Fixed a couple of shape-related bugs.

to use in -root mode, which caused it to not work with
xscreensaver when the saver wasn't using the default
visual and cmap.

2.03 31-May-1994 Minor tweaks to Imakefile; submitted for X11r6 contrib.

1.06 03-Feb-1993 Fixed some memory errors.
1.05 10-Jun-1992 More from Tony Kennedy: support visuals with different
depths from default, center digits correctly in
initial window, and merge geometry defaults in a more
sophisticated way. Merged in a slightly reworked
version of more general segment-handling code from
Dan Wallach <c169-bg@auriga.berkeley.edu>. Added a
second, even bigger builtin font. Added the -root
and -fullscreen arguments.
1.04 04-Jun-1992 More VMS support for resource database files, from
Tony Kennedy <adk@scri.fsu.edu>.

<dan@innosoft.com>.

1.00 07-Oct-1991 Submitted for X11r5 contrib tape.
