A terminal clock that uses 7-segment display characters

Overview

Seven-segment clock (7clock)

7clock.3.mp4

This is a clock for terminals that uses the Unicode seven-segment display characters added in Unicode 13.0. It runs on most commonly used operating systems, including BSD, Linux, macOS, and Windows.

You need to have a font installed that has glyphs for the seven-segment display characters. I use PragmataPro. Another option is Iosevka.

Note: It doesn't actually cycle through colours when it's running, that was just for demonstration in the video.

Building

Ensure you have installed the Rust compiler, then:

cargo build --release --locked

Running

After building the binary will be at target/release/7clock.

Run the binary to get the default 12-hour clock without seconds. The following options are supported:

  • -24 — use 24-hour time
  • --colour — set the colour of the clock (see --help for more info)
  • --seconds — display seconds

Credits

  • This clock is partially inspired by clock-tui

Licence

This project is dual licenced under either of:

at your option.

Split text into semantic chunks, up to a desired chunk size. Supports calculating length by characters and tokens

Large language models (LLMs) can be used for many tasks, but often have a limited context size that can be smaller than documents you might want to use. To use documents of larger length, you often have to split your text into chunks to fit within this context size.
