Awfully easy to do.  Just take the UpdateTime() function, knock out
99.9% of it, turn it into a main, and watch it consume CPU.

Actually I suppose it might require an X11 front-end because of the
way it was written.  Just a dialog with a close button would work.
That way you'd have the X11 loop at the UpdateTime() loop
functional.  Maybe not so trivial, but still do-able.
