 # timescreen
 #
 # A script to take the date in intelligent formats and run it through figlet.
 # Output should basically give you a nice full-screen clock. 
 #
 # Version Log? - nothing to clear though...
 #
 # TODO's
 #  . some sanity checking on options - and existance of figlet and fonts...
 #  . controllable alarm clock
 #  . stopwatch/timer
 #  . alarm clock 
 #  . able to run something external for chiming the hours (eg, `saytime`)
 #  . recode in C (reimpliment figlet renderer? eugh) make figlet a library?
 #    > figlet licensing means "FIG" would have to be in title then. "figclock"
 #  . use tput rather than echo (if someone needs it ... let me know!)
 #    + likely better support on wider ranges of terminals
 #    - yet another process to spawn every second. (rather then `echo`, which is
 #      built into the more advanced sh interpreters!
 #  . set path to figlet as a variable
 #
 # BUGS
 #  . figfonts specified in rcfile may be overridden by the big fonts if the width is
 #    too wide...
 #
 # ?.x's (early to mid 2000s...)
 #  . fixes to allow compatibility with newer versions of figlet
 #
 # 4.x's (late 2000ish)
 #  . config file (-rc= )
 #  . figlet binary option (-figbin= )
 #
 # 3.x's (middle 2000ish)
 #  . double-width secondbar when width is wide enough
 #  . new commandline options for: (they should be obvious I hope)
 #	-w=xx	(set width) 
 #	-l	(turn on looping)
 #	-b	(turn on beeps)
 #	-f 	(turn on fortunes)
 #	-m	(turn on mail check)
 #	-s	(turn on secondbar)
 #	-fn1	(figlet font for date)
 #	-fn2	(figlet font for time)
 #	-d	(double-height secondbar)
 #  . screen not cleared on EVERY minute. Only when nescessary now.
 #  . improved sh compliancy (tested against ash mostly)
 #    and uses /usr/bin/zsh by default (5x better CPU performance
 #    compared to bash. marginally worse memory usage)
 #  . clock (not date tho) is in bold. easier to see :)
 #
 # 2.x's (early 2000)
 #  . function groovybar as a "second hand"
 #  . slightly better random fortune setup
 #
 # 1.x's (1999ish)
 #  . internal looping
 #  . argument for width
 #  . implemented random fortunes
 #
 # betas: (1998ish)
 #  . seperate scripts for different fonts. 
 #  . very basic execution of concept
 #  . no error checking, nothing fancy
 #  . no internal looping

 Usage: timescreen [options] [--version] [--help]
 	options are  
 	  -w=xx		(set width in chars)
 	  -l		(turn on looping)
 	  -s		(turn on second counter - only works when looping)
 	  -d		(double-height second counter)
 	  -b		(turn on chimes)
 	  -f		(turn on fortunes) (every 7 minutes)
 	  -m		(turn on mail check) *every 3 minutes)
 	  -fn1=xxxx	(figlet font for date)
 	  -fn2=xxxx	(figlet font for time)
 	  -figbin=/path/to/figlet	(full command path to figlet)
 	  -rc=/path/to/.timescreenrc	($HOME/.timescreenrc by default)
 	  
 ** Note on fonts: by default, the date is displayed using figlet font 'thick'
 **	and the time using figlet font 'colossal'
 ** If -w is set, and the value is 95 or greater, then the default fonts become
 **	'roman' for the date, and 'doh' for the time. 
 ** The -fn1 and -fn2 settings have priority over both of these.
 ** 'showfigfonts(6)'  will give you a runthrough of all your fonts
