BTDClock (Big Text Display Clock) is a digital clock displayed in large font on a window that is maximized to the screen so that it is clearly visible from a distance.

To ensure that the time display is uninterrupted, the program automatically detects whether the screen saver is active and if so, it temporarily switches it off while the program is running and the program also automatically disables the computer\\\'s power save/off mode only when this program is running.

When this program is running, the user is able to customize the time display by selecting a font type, style and size. Additionally, the user is able to change the text color and display background color.
