Well, I fixed this in a hurry; but I think that the problem centered
around the fact that the escape codes hardwired into the program
were backslash-three-three instead of backslash-oh-three-three.
Anyway, this version works on my vt102 (vt100 lookalike) on USG 5.0
on a Vax 11/780. Enjoy:

Here's a nifty little program(s) to display the date & time of
day on the screen of your VT100 terminal on a real-time basis.
Although I've written it for a VT100, I'm sure those of you who
have different terminals could modify it. The only thing that's
required, is that the terminal has a cursor save function
within it's command repertoire.
The swc.c program included is use to switch the clock display
on/off for those times when you don't want the display, but
keeps the clock running until switched back on.

****************************************************************************
**
** program = vtclock.c
**
** author = R.J. Esposito
**
** Vtclock provides a visual clock display every minute on
** a real-time basis. The display is visable in the lower
** right-hand corner (row 24, col 56-80) of the screen.
** Vtclock could be modified to perform on other video
** terminals, provided they incorporate the cursor save
** function within their command repertoire.
**
** Vtclock should be called from the user's .profile for
** conveinence, but could be called from the shell.
** It should be run as a backround process, since cursor
** saving is done prior to clock display.
**
** An interface program 'swc.c' is used to switch the display
** on/off depending on it's previous state. Vtclock saves it's
** pid in the user's home directory in '.clock_pid'. Swc reads
** this file to send the SIGUSR1 (16) signal to vtclock for
** display switching. This file is removed when vtclock dies
** (SIGHUP).
**
** NOTE: Some strange things may occur when emacs is used in
** conjunction with vtclock. It may be wise to turn off
** the display (swc) prior to entering emacs, and then
** turning it back on (swc) after completion. If you're
** a die-hard (like me!) just use the ^L to re-draw the
** display.
