Accurate clock

G'day,

Our hosts all run xntpd and keep nice accurate time - very close to an
atomic clock. What I want is some software (preferably something nice
and graphical and pretty) that displays the system clock *accurately*.

Various software that exists already (e.g. digital clock on the CDE
desktop) display the time every second, but the ticking over of seconds
start from the instant the application started and not as the actual
real time second click over. (Start a number of them up if you don't
believe me)

The closest quick thing I can get is under csh:

while(1)
date
end

Any ideas?

Jim
