WHAT DOES IT DO?
Basically, it sits on your desktop and tells you the day of the week, the
date, or the time, based on your specs.

WHY "Ten-Second"?
Because that's about how long it takes to get it running.

HOW DO I INSTALL IT?
Just drop it into your startup folder to get it to pop up when you start
your computer. 

WHAT PARAMETERS DOES IT HAVE?
You can specify what it shows (day of week, date, time), whether you want
seconds counted, 12/24hr format, font, font size, back/foreground colors.

HOW DO I MODIFY ITS PARAMETERS?
Right-click on it and choose Adjust. Alternatively, click on it anywhere once,
then hit F2.

HOW DO I CLOSE IT?
Right-click on it and choose Exit. Alternatively, click on it anywhere once,
then hit F4.

HOW DO I MOVE IT?
Click on it anywhere and start dragging.

HOW DO I MAKE IT SMALLER?
It automatically adjusts vertically for the size of the font you are using.
To adjust the horizontal motion, click on it once, then use F5 to contract it,
F8 to expand it. Alternatively, right-click on it and choose Shrink and Expand
respectively.

WHERE DOES IT STORE ITS DATA?
If you are interested, check HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\FreshWater\Clock\1.0\
*NOTE* Do not delete the StringCheck value.

HOW MUCH CPU TIME DOES IT TAKE?
On a Pentium-166, it took 0% CPU time. (Obviously not entirely accurate, but
that would seem to indicate it is less than .5% CPU Time.) FYI, the program
polls the clock once per second when counting seconds, once per 5 seconds 
when not.

MISCELLANEOUS
The clock will remember where it was when it was closed and will return there
when reopened.
