Can anyone recommend a good countdown clock that sits on desktop. All the ones I've seen are ugly and gay. ex: 50days 23 hrs 10min 30 secs til xxxxx

you could use this piece of shit

 

#!/usr/bin/perl

print q(enternumber of seconds );

$x = <STDIN>;

while($x != 0)
{
select(undef, undef, undef, 1);
syswrite STDOUT, "$x ";
$x--;
}

 

but i dont think anyone actually would.

 

this on the other hand http://www.briggsy.org/countapplet.rar is pretty good, follow the instructions to make a page that calls this applet, then set it as a desktop object

Good shit. ty greeneyes
