The clock uses the computer clock's time to know what time it is. It uses some game maker functions to work out the time remaining. However it needs a lot of adjustments to get the time right. For example if the target time is 5 PM, then at 5PM you have to take off one day as you are now under 24 hours to go before target. You might have to then take off a year. Like most things, it's not as simple as it looks, but it's not the most complicated thing I've ever written.

Dude, this can be quite useful. How does it know the date on computers?
By the way, I am a nerd, so I am using this clock to count down the days until the release of Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Right now it is scheduled to come out on Sunday, March 9, 2008.

That's the formula for showing current time snabelost. Current time is easy, countdown to a specific time and date takes a little more code.
