Just saw this on /r/unixporn. I love it! A curses binary clock.

I run it as
which looks like this

If you haven't read a binary clock before; you have 6 colums and 4 rows. By default tbclock runs in 24HR time. But what else is there?
80 8 80 8 80 8
40 4 40 4 40 4
20 2 20 2 20 2
10 1 10 1 10 1
In the scrot the time is
10+4+2:40+10+2:20+4+2 -> 16:52:26
Have fun!

From Commandline-fu:
Code: Select all
read -a A<<<".*.**..*....*** 8 9 5 10 6 0 2 11 7 4";for C in `date +"%H%M"|fold -w1`;do echo "${A:${A[C+1]}:4}";done
..gnutella..
