      <div dir="ltr">So here's what I believe to be the best candidate
        (so far) for setting the time.
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <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>
