Fuzzy clock - Githubissues

Hey, I wanted a fuzzy clock in Gnome, but I couldn't find any documentation for extensions and I ended up just altering this extension to show a fuzzy clock.

If you don't know its just a clock rounded to the 5min mark, shown in full words not numbers. It looks like this: Fuzzy clock

Here is my patch, it's not ready to be merged as it now ignores all preferences (if true then fuzzy), but here is the code. If you want to use it you'd have to add a preference and the UI, but I don't know how to do that.
