 *  Digital Clock Java applet  06/27/96
 *    by Mike Perham [email protected]
 *
 *  Blinks the colon every second; refreshes time
 *  every minute.  Futuristic LED display.  Generally nifty.
 *
 *  Array digit[] holds a bitmask of which LEDs each number
 *  lights up: digit[1] = 6 because it lights up the 2nd
 *  and 3rd LEDs.
 *            1
 *          ------
 *         7| 6  |2
 *          ------
 *         5|    |3
 *          ------
 *            4
 *
 *    Each digit is drawn using the x[] and y[] coords.  The
 *    graphics coordinate-space is translated so that even though
 *    they are the same coords each time, they are drawn in a 
 *    different position.  This makes the digits much easier to
 *    synchronize (they are all the same size) and move.
 *
 * v1.01 - 7/18/96 - Changed first digit to a simple "1" to
 *         save space and improve look.
 *    
 * v1.02 - 3/16/97 - Updated to 1.1 API.  Rewrote a few lines
 * 			to lower memory usage now that I know Java much better.
