  • -e <Command> — Command to execute via double click of mouse button 1. (Use quotes if your command has white space in it). double-click = main character energy for your mouse. 💅
  • -24 — Show time in 24-hour format instead of default 12-hour AM/PM format. military girlies rise 🫡
  • -30 — Show local time in 30-hour format. Times between midnight and 6 AM are displayed as belonging to the previous day, so the hour ranges from 6 to 29. bestie this is NOT a typo, the clock really does be doing all that. 🌙
