Show dual date and time on taskbar #1

Open nepto opened 2 years ago

nepto commented 2 years ago

Living on two continents and working on several timezones I am in need to show up two times in the taskbar.

Currently, there is an option TimeFormat which defines shown date and time. This works well and I personally use:

TimeFormat=" %m/%d %H:%M "

This feature will add TimeFormat2 for another date and time, which will be shown on the taskbar near the first time. Also, there would be TimeZone2 which will define a timezone for TimeFormat2.

IceWM will automatically get the local timezone and calculate the difference to TimeZone2 and show the second time in TimeFormat2 format on the taskbar.

My company is willing to pay for this feature.

This was already implemented and I tested it.

@gijsbers will provide more details on this feature.

I am attaching a screenshot to show how cool this feature looks.
