It runs on Linux systems (specifically tested on Arch Linux) and leverages the `ncurses` library to manage terminal output. Users can toggle between different fonts for the clock by pressing the 'w' key and can exit the program by pressing 'q'.\n\n## Features\n\n- Displays the current time in ASCII art.\n- Allows switching between different clock fonts.\n- Simple terminal interface using `ncurses`.\n- Dynamic adjustment for terminal window size.\n- Color schemes.\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n- **C++ Compiler** (e.g., `g++`)\n- **ncurses Library**\n  - On Arch Linux, you can install it using:  \n    `sudo pacman -S ncurses`\n- **Make** (for building the project)\n\n### Installation and Uninstallation\n\nTo install the program, run the following command in the project directory (replace `sudo` with `su` if needed):\n\n```bash\nsudo make install\n```\n\nThis command will install the program and its dependencies on the system.\n\n#### Uninstallation\n\nTo uninstall the program, run the following command in the project directory:\n\n```bash\nsudo make uninstall\n```\n\nThis command will remove the program and its dependencies from the system.\n\n## Cloning and Building\n\n1. Clone the repository:\n\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/CoolClock.git\n   cd CoolClock\n   ```\n\n2. Build the project:\n\n   ```bash\n   make build\n   ```\n\nThis will create the `coolclock` executable in the current directory and will clean previous build files.\n\n3. Run the program:\n\n   ```bash\n   ./coolclock\n   ```\n\n\u003e Please clean up the project directory after use by running `make clean`.\n\n## Usage\n\nOnce the program is installed, you can run it using the following command:\n\n```bash\ncoolclock\n```\n\nThe current time will be displayed in a pre-defined ASCII art font. The available features are:\n\n- **Change Font**: Press `w` or `W` to cycle through different ASCII art fonts.\n- **Change Color**: Press `c` to cycle through different color schemes.\n- **Quit**: Press `q` or `Q` to exit the program.\n\n**Note**: The program requires a terminal window with at least 6 lines and 55 columns.\n\n## Collaboration\n\nWe are open to contributions!
