/## \file
   Fl_Clock, Fl_Clock_Output widgets . #/


/##
  \class Fl_Clock_Output
  \brief This widget can be used to display a program-supplied time.
  
  The time shown on the clock is not updated. To display the current time,
  use Fl_Clock instead.

  /##
    Returns the displayed time.
    Returns the time in seconds since the UNIX epoch (January 1, 1970).
    \see value(ulong)
   #/
  ulong value() const {return value_;}

/##
  Set the displayed time.
  Set the time in seconds since the UNIX epoch (January 1, 1970).
  \param[in] v seconds since epoch

/##
  Create an Fl_Clock widget using the given position, size, and label string.
  The default boxtype is \c FL_NO_BOX.

  \param[in] L widget label, default is no label

/##
  Create an Fl_Clock widget using the given boxtype, position, size, and
  label string.
  \param[in] t boxtype
  \param[in] X, Y, W, H position and size of the widget
  \param[in] L widget label, default is no label

\note

From Duncan: (will be removed later, just for now as a reminder)

5. I've just added comments for the fl_color_chooser() functions, and
   in order to keep them and the general Function Reference information
   for them together, I created a new doxygen group, and used \\ingroup
   in the three comment blocks. This creates a new Modules page (which
   may not be what we want) with links to it from the File Members and
   Fl_Color_Chooser.H pages. It needs a bit more experimentation on my
   part unless someone already knows how this should be handled. (Maybe
   we can add it to a functions.dox file that defines a functions group
   and do that for all of the function documentation?)


<H3>Example comment:</H3>

\code
The following text is a comment within a doxygen comment block and
will not appear in the generated document:
<!-- Editor's note:
   ** Caution: the following text contains utf-8 encoded characters.
-->
This will be visible again.
\endcode

will not appear in the generated document:

\code
<H1>Headline in big text</H1>
<H2>Headline in big text</H2>
<H3>Headline in big text</H3>
<H4>Headline in big text</H4>
\endcode

<H1>Headline in big text</H1>
<H2>Headline in big text</H2>
<H3>Headline in big text</H3>
<H4>Headline in big text</H4>


<P>Assuming that the following source code was written on MS Windows, 
this example will output the correct label on OS X and X11 as well.
Without the conversion call, the label on OS X would read 
<tt>Fahrvergn¸gen</tt> with a deformed umlaut u ("cedille",
html "&cedil;").
\code
  btn = new Fl_Button(10, 10, 300, 25);
  btn->copy_label(fl_latin1_to_local("Fahrvergnügen"));
\endcode

\note	If your application uses characters that are not part of both
	encodings, or it will be used in areas that commonly use different
	code pages, you might consider upgrading to FLTK 2 which supports
	UTF-8 encoding. 

\todo	This is an example todo entry, please ignore !
