Re: What time is it?

very nice.
you could also wrap the whole thing in this:

{
# clear the screen
print "\ec";
# draw your clock
<your code>
# wait and redo
sleep 1; redo
}

also see these for my obfu'd timepieces - yours looks nicer!

Update: Actually i realised you only draw minutes, so you could sleep 60 - slightly less redrawing
Also I'm not sure print "\ec" works on everything - so perhaps a nicer way would be to use <check os here>?`clear`:`cls`;

<check os here>?`clear`:`cls`; You need a print for that one, as `clear` actually prints escape sequence, so <check os here>?print`clear`:`cls`. Also, I think that just print`cls;clear` should work too, as on windows this gives cls a command-line argument which it probably ignores (or it obeys it and makes the console real shiny clear); on linux the clear should hide whatever error cls prints.
