## Colors

If you would like your clock to be viewable in color, include the following in the #ifdef COLOR section you read with xrdb:

*customization: -color

This will cause oclock to pick up the colors in the app-defaults color customization file: /XFree86/lib/X11/app-defaults/Clock-color. Below are the default colors:

Clock*Background: grey
Clock*BorderColor: light blue
Clock*hour: yellow
Clock*jewel: yellow
