.TH BBDATE 1 "June 14, 2003" "bbtools" bbdate
.SH NAME
bbdate \- display the current date in a Blackbox style window
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B bbdate
[\fIOPTIONS\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
bbdate displays the date in a decorated window, simulating the
look of the Blackbox toolbar (Blackbox is a Window Manager for X11).
To copy this look, a great deal of the code was taken from Blackbox.
.SH USAGE
By default \fBbbdate\fR reads the Blackbox style-file as defined in
\fI~/.blackboxrc\fR and copies as much of the style as possible. The
result is an application which looks a lot like the toolbar.
The \fIposition\fR is given as +x+y or -x-y (or combination)
where -x-y is the (x,y) distance of the right bottom of screen
to the right bottom of \fBbbdate\fR.
So position -0-0 puts the application in the lower right conner of the
screen.
