The module Chess::GameClock do the job of a Chess or Go electronic clock. You can set any types of cadences like Fisher, Bronstein, Byo-yomi selecting preset cadences or by manual interface. The left and right mouse buttons are the clock buttons for whites & blacks. The keyboard is also divided into two zones right and left who emulates the actions of the mouse, as an extended facility (letter h, at the keyboard center has been excluded). The time counters are large on the screen and move counters are also displayed. The window could be adjusted with the "$scaling" parameter, that is a floating number generally between 0.5 and 2.0 . The counter display has three commands only accessed by keyboard keys: Control-q , forces application to quit. Control-h , make counters to toggle between the counting and halt (pause) mode. Start accessed by Control-Shift-0, Start or Restart the counters from the beginning. You can also toggling the display between the elapsed or remaining time with Alt-c.
Note: The window "Perl Chess Clock" must have the focus for that commands could be effective.
