Resizable taskbar and digital clock

[BSD83]

Hello. I just wanted to post some suggetions... I think it would be great if the taskbar could be resizable (it occuppies too much space on screen), and if a digital clock could be incorporated into it, as an option to the analog one

I love CDE, it's a great DE and use it everyday

Greetings

To add the digital clock control to the CDE front panel :

Install dclock (http://opencircuitdesign.com/~tim/programs/dclock)

Create a unique *.fp file (for example, clock.fp) in the user's $HOME/.dt/types directory:

clock.fp

CONTROL Clock
{
TYPE client
CONTAINER_NAME Top
CONTAINER_TYPE BOX
CLIENT_NAME dclock
CLIENT_GEOMETRY 99x48
LABEL Clock
}

open a terminal and type " /usr/bin/dclock -fg cyan -led_off gray26 -miltime -geometry 72x48 -thickness .125"

If you are running a "home" session, you will need to reset your "home" session, which saves the current state of your desktop applications as your home state and restores it at the next login.
To reset your home session, invoke the Style Manager, click on Startup and select the push-button labeled 'Set Home Session...'.
