TclockEx is still a better Windows Clock

Similar to the awesome util Printkey 2000, there is another Windows util that is still my favorite for the task.. even that it is very very old: TclockEx.. a much better Windows task bar/system tray clock!

It serves a few important purposes for me:
  • Display date and time in a better way
  • Customizable format of "date and time copy to clipboard" when i doubleclick the systray. I use this format to get a quick datestring for usage in reports and documentation: yyyyMMdd-HHmm (eg. 20080427-0719)
  • Display a simple calender with week numbers, shown by single click and week start can be modified to monday.
The original site in the About page http://users.iafrica.com/d/da/dalen does not work, instead I used http://www.rcis.co.za/dale/tclockex/.

For the paranoid people, here is my md5 sum for the safe exe:

1238b1c59fd4987d538144aa915e85c2 *tclockex-1.4.2.exe
1238b1c59fd4987d538144aa915e85c2 *tclockex.exe
