this is how it was originally and i actually found it very useful. why? it 
allowed me to set the date to a different colour than the clock which made it 
_easy_ to visually discern where the date was and the time was ... in fact, 
this may even be a good default set up to explore.. in any case, having the 
date colour configurable was far more useful than the frame configuration 
ever was IMHO ....
