A background process that drives a word clock display on the Rainbowduino. The rainbowd process must be running.

Option Description
‑f path Specifies the path to the named pipe used for input to rainbowd. Defaults to /tmp/rainbowduino. Can also be specified with the environment variable RAINBOWD_PIPE.
-l lang Specifies the language of the word clock. Defaults to English. Can also be specified with the environment variable RAINBOWWORDCLOCK_LANGUAGE.

You will need to cover the LED matrix with a mask of the letters of the word clock for the display to make any sense. The mask can be made easily by printing a 60mm black square with evenly-spaced white letters on a piece of paper. Masks are provided below in SVG format.
