literary-clock
------------------ v0.1
by lenwe
based on:
- Online Screensaver scheduler by peterson, via mobileread.com
- Jaap Meijers's image generator code from https://www.instructables.com/Literary-Clock-Made-From-E-reader/
- Carlos Bonadeo's quote database from https://github.com/cdmoro/literature-clock
literary-clock overwrites the screen content while the screensaver is running
with a nice (or not) quote from literature.
The action is performed every minute while the device is charging and by default
every 15 minutes when it is running on battery.
