sure, no problem smile

the clock and calendar are made in php (so you need to have php5-cli installed)
Here's the php-script:

$year    = date('Y');
$month    = date('n');
$day    = date('j');
$hour    = date('H');
$min    = date('i');
//*/

//var_dump($argv);

The above script contains 4 clocktypes, and 2 calendartypes.
You can use them in your conky like this:

${execp /full/path/to/the/php/file clock}

The argument you're using (in the above code the argument is 'clock') defines what sort of clock/calendar you're using.
You can choose between
calendar (you can also use cal, or date)
simplecal (you can also use simplecalendar, or simpledate)
clock (you can also use clock, or time)
simpleclock (you can also use simpletime)
verysimpleclock (you can also use verysimpletime)

To make the numbers line up correctly, you should use a monospaced font. I use Kates, from the artwiz font pack

I've had problems with the calendar-code, the days and months not lining up, but I believe I've fixed it tongue

@Pitje - Thanks.  I guess since I am posting I should put up a screenshot so here is my current Fluxbox.  Pretty much the same thing, different wallpaper.
