• VIDCLOCK.COM → A:\SOFT programa de DOS 1.8 KB

No need to put VIDCLOCK.DOC: they are manuals, source code or supporting material. Read them here and save 6.4 KB on a 1 MB disk.

1. Copy VIDCLOCK.COM to A:\SOFT. They are DOS programs: run them from the DOS icon, or add A:\SOFT to the PATH in C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT to call them by name.

Derived from the package contents and the 200LX conventions. It installs to A: on purpose: C: is a RAM disk and every byte there is memory taken from the system.

/I      Install the clock (turns on the clock)

   /R      Remove the clock (turns off the clock)

   /F      Flicker-free (slow) video, for cheap CGAs

   /M      Military time format (24-hour clock)

   /S      Seconds off (don't display seconds)

   /C=f,b  Color settings for clock.  Foreground and background colors are
           selectable, using numbers as follows:

           Number    Color system
              0         Black
              1         Blue
              2         Green
              3         Cyan
              4         Red
              5         Magenta
              6         Brown
              7         White

           Add eight to foreground for intense or bright colors.
           Add eight to background for blinking colors (not recommended).

           For a Monochrome display, use the following pairs:
           Numbers   Mono System
             7,0      Normal
             1,0      Underlined
             0,7      Inverse video

   /L=r,c  Location of clock.  Row and Column should be specified.  The
           upper left corner of the screen is 1,1.  The default is around
           1,71 (depending on screen mode and /F, /S options).  It is
           recommended that the clock go on the top line of the screen, or
           past the 25th line (for EGA/VGA in the proper modes), since
           normal scrolling will otherwise tend to messily duplicate the
           time value on the screen.

   /U=t    Update frequency: how often to update the clock display, in
           18ths of seconds.  This may range from 2-255, with the default
           at 9 (half of a second).
