Maybe someone could take this code and make a "Small Statusbar Clock"?

thanks in advance

I wonder how easy it would be to recognize the time looking at it like that.

Second would be maintaining the code for two applications. Unless it is a change solely for communication between the two plugins any change would have to be made in both code bases. This hopefully wouldn't be much of an increase in work given the simplicity of the code.

Give me a couple of days to see what I can work out.
Nevermind fiferboy.

I see that the original StatusbarClock is in maemo Extras for OS2008 now. Sorry to uninstall your version, but I want my clock to just take up one space. (I like the 12/24hour, font and color options yours gives though.)
