Default Does a clock app exist that has ClocX functionality, but digital output?

I already use "Rainlendar"


Hi Neil Turkenkopf,
Thanks to GlowingBlueMist, we have good solutions for an external clock:
o DSclock (digital) https://www.dualitysoft.com/dsclock/index.html
o ClocX (analog) http://www.clocx.net/
where some people also use a clock that replaces the system tray clock
o T-clock (system) https://github.com/White-Tiger/T-Clock/releases

It's strange you mention Rainlendar, because the _only_ problem I have is
that Rainlendar uses the _system_ clock, and not its own time-zoned clock.

That's too bad because my scripts randomly run tzutil.exe to rotate the
system time zone, which affects nothing adversely, EXCEPT Rainlendar.

It would be nice if Rainlendar used its own TimeZone just like ClocX and
DSClock do.

The main reason I'm using Rainlendar is that I have a privacy-based local
calendar solution that doesn't require the Internet.
o I view & modify the desktop calendar using Rainlendar lite freeware
o I view & modify the Android calendar using SimpleMobileTools
o On iOS, unfortunately, this basic functionality doesn't appear to exist

What's beautiful about this method is...
o There is zero need to put your calendar on "the cloud"
o You simply import/export text "ics" icalendar format files
o The Windows/Linux/Android calendar programs easily "merge'
o So you can edit the iCal file on _any_ platform (but iOS)
