DSL Tips and Tricks :: Changing Fluxbox time display to 24 hour format
If you don't like the 12 hour time display format in Fluxbox toolbar, just change the following line in /home/dsl/.fluxbox/init
session.screen0.strftimeFormat: %d %b %y %I:%M %p
to
session.screen0.strftimeFormat: %d %b %y %k:%M
Then restart X (WindowManager -> Exit -> startx).
Brilliant! Thanks.
