Description: An analog clock drawn with vector-graphics
  It is an analog clock displaying the system-time. It leverages the new 
visual
  features offered by Xorg 7.0 in combination with a compositing-manager 
(e.g.
  like xcompmgr or compiz), gtk+ 2.10.0, cairo 1.2.0, libglade 2.6.0 and 
librsvg
  2.14.0 to produce a time display with pretty-pixels.
