Is there any solution or hidden option to show the time on top of the output? #119

Is there any option or maybe a 'hack' to show the current time on top of the sheep when it is operating as a screensaver?

I'm not much of a programmer, but I'm looking at adding in something to show the time all the time, likely using Shepherd::addMessageText and get_system_time(). It's going to be kind of hacky but I think/hope it will work OK.

If I get it working (assuming there is not already a solution), clean it up and add an option in to the interface, should I submit patches?

I think this would be a great feature!
