Description:
This clock is inspired to the Pong game (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pong)!
If you want to know the time, just look at the score while the cute and efficient hamsters are playing for you!

It is just as simple as it sounds, enjoy

Installation instruction:
-Manual Installation:
Extract the folder PongClock to your ~/.screenlets/ directory (if you don't have a .screenlets directory in your home folder, just create it!).
Start the screenlets manager and the screenlet will appear with all the others.

-Automatic Installation (since 1.4):
Open Screenlets Manager and select install from the left menu. Then locate the archive and install it.


[strike]I recommend to install the font included in the archive. You can find the instructions in the readme file[/strike]
Since version 1.3 it uses SVG images instead of font.

There was another small bug with the way the screenlets clickable area is determined- its line 250. The updated .py can be found here http://rafb.net/p/maHoIm73.html

Just a note-- If you want users to be able to install the screenlet through the manager, you should package it with screenlets-packager. The screenlets-packager script should already be in your path if you have screenlets installed. You can run it with: screenlets-packager <screenlet directory>

Extract the folder PongClock to your ~/.screenlets/ directory (if you don't have a .screenlets directory in your home folder, just create it!). Start the screenlets manager and the screenlet will appear with all the others. I'm adding this the notes. /cheers

I can't install it to. I use Mandriva 2010 64bit KDE. :(

I think this is a really cool idea for a screenlet- I've fixed a few minor bugs in it (right click, move) and removed the need for installing a font (by making SVGs out of the numbers). http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/963152/PongClockScreenlet-1.2.tar.gz -You (the author) can use this however you like

Thank you for your improvement! I've included it in the 1.3 version. /cheers
