 Introduction:
     Thats just a nice (hope so;-) digital clock for PowerBar.
     (Sources on EMail-request).

 Installation:
     Unzip the archive (you should have already done this, as you read
     this text :-).
     Place PowerClock_module in PowerBar's module folder. (Re-)Start
     PowerBar. Thats all.

 Usage:
     Click at the clock to get a preferences popup. I think theres no
     need to say more here. At the moment preferences are saved in a
     file named powerbar_settings_PowerClock in the
     /boot/system/settings/ folder.
