[KUAL Extension] Introducing Kindle Clock
Dear MobileRead Community,

I'm excited to introduce Kindle Clock, a new KUAL extension that repurposes your (idle) Kindle into a clock display.



Displays current time, date, weekday, and battery level, refreshing every minute.

Installation:
  • Ensure your Kindle is jailbroken and has KUAL installed.
  • Connect your Kindle to your computer via USB.
  • Copy the "kclock" directory to the "extensions" folder on your Kindle.
  • Safely eject your Kindle.
  • Open KUAL on your Kindle, navigate to "Kindle Clock," and launch the application.

Usage:
  • The clock updates automatically every minute.
  • To exit, press the "Home" button on your Kindle.

Tested on:
  • Amazon Kindle 4

For more details and to access the source code, visit the GitHub repository:
https://github.com/LaisRast/kclock

I welcome feedback, suggestions and testers on other devices.

Sorry to hear that it didn't work, and thanks for testing it.

The main script relies on some system-specific utilities (like /usr/bin/lipc-set-prop and gasgauge-info) which might not be available in Paperwhite 5.

As this is so far only tested on Kindle 4 Non-Touch, I changed the description in the repository to mention that explicitly.
Thanks for testing it.
