binclock, binary clock in Python

Показать описание
binclock [1], a nicely done Python script, for displaying current time in binary format.
It's amazing to see a Python 2 script written in 2001, more than a decade ago still running perfectly well. Key presses registered, colors rendered right, layout placed nice. It's written for Python 2.0+, now Python 2.7+; for curses 1.6+, now 5.9. Nothing is broken by much newer libraries.
As the name suggested, it shows current time in binary form. Everything is switchable except the main binary clock. Title [t], clock in decimal [d], hundreds [h], and even a pause [p] (not sure why it has this).
This is a remake of a video I made in 2009 [2], now featuring individual clocks with better images.
