SunClock, MOTIF TOYS, XWindow SunClock Display This demo is a clock that shows which portion of the Earth's surface is illuminated by the Sun. This version of SunClock has evolved from the original source posted in the SPEZKO::DECW_EXAMPLES notes conference. I ported the code to OpenVMS AXP and added several command line switches. For more information on the original code see the SUNCLOCK.DOC file. The command line switches are documented below. ** NOTE ** You must have the logical name DEMOS defined to point to the top level directory that contains the SunClock directory. All command procedures rely on this being defined. For example if all the SunClock files are in WORK:[SMITH.SUNCLOCK] then you need a logical name defined as follows: $ DEFINE/SYSTEM/EXECUTIVE DEMOS WORK:[SMITH.] ** Ensure you include the "." after the last directory name ** To build... ----------------------------------------------------------------- $ @DEMOS:[SUNCLOCK]BUILD_SUNCLOCK.COM This will build either a OpenVMS VAX or OpenVMS AXP image based on what architecture it is run on. To run... ----------------------------------------------------------------- $ @DEMOS:[SUNCLOCK]START_SUNCLOCK.COM This will start up the appropiate architecture version of SunClock. You will need to edit this startup file to set the appropiate timezone you are in and your offset from GMT. The offset from GMT is required to correctly position the sun. The zone may be any 3 characters to represent the timezone you are in. For example, in the Eastern USA the -zone is "EST" and the -offset is 5. To retain the case for -zone, quote the 3 characters.
