I would like to get the time, then insert the equivalent using characters.
Suppose the time is 14:42:17, I want to have the following
H_H_ ; Hours (12 hours)
M_M_M_M_M_M_M_M_ ; Minutes in 5 minute steps
M_M_ ; Minutes on remainder
S_S_S_ ; Seconds in 5 second steps
S_S_ ; Seconds on remainder
I have the following three functions to print "H_", "M_" and "S_".
(defun ticker-hour ()
"TODO."
(interactive)
(insert (propertize "H"
'font-lock-face '(:background "red"
:foreground "white")))
(insert "_"))
and the same for minutes and seconds using the two corresponding functions
"ticker-minute" and "ticker-second".
