(so far) for setting the time.

<div>It just requires a switch (and whatever pull resistor).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Using two gestures hold and click.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To set 2:31:</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>To set 3:02</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If there were not four holds, it throws out your data and
goes back to clock with whatever time it was on. So I guess
there's a third gesture which is wait which abandons the
operation.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The worst scenario is 12:59:</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click click click click click click click click
click click <br>
</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click click click <br>
</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div>click click click click click click click click click <br>
</div>
<div>hold</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>It's easy enough to do and only requires one switch.</div>

<div>Here's a tricky problem. How to set the time? I mean
a user friendly way for a user.</div>

<div>I think I have a solution but I wanted to table it
here to see if anybody has anything up their sleeve. I
will post my idea shortly but I didn't want to bias
