An Analog clock that uses the Timer function and callbacks

File Information
Description	This is an analog clock function that I wrote my first week on co-op at the Mathworks. This function uses the timer object to update the clock face ever .1 seconds. This also uses polygons instead of lines to generate the clock hands. The code is pretty straight forward and is a great excersize for any first timer MATLAB users.
Acknowledgements	This submission has inspired the following: Analog clock
MATLAB release	MATLAB 7.1.0 (R14SP3)

04 Jan 2006	urs (us) schwarz	did you look at what you uploaded? as of now, this submission is completely useless us
04 Jan 2006	John D'Errico	Perhaps the best description of this clock is "timeless".
05 Jan 2006	John D'Errico	With this (correct) release of scottsclock, I must revise my review upwards. Since its an "old" style clock, in deference to those old Timex watch ads, I tested it by running over the clock with a Simulink model of a Sherman tank. It takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
05 Jan 2006	S Wiggin	Works very nicely!
06 Jan 2006	Michael Kleder	Very nice.
13 Apr 2007	Joseph Kirk	I like this clock. It works well, has plenty of comments, and a nice display. I would suggest putting it in the FEX->Utilities->Clock section rather than FEX->Gallery though...

22 Oct 2009	Ravi Jonnal	I don't know how well this works "out of the box", but I hacked a bunch of the code out of the m-files and used it in some retinal image videos and it worked great.

05 Jan 2006	I must have uploaded the wrong m file, since I have had a lot of revisions there are a few m files named scottsclock on my computer.
