all TCL's clock clicks always with the -milliseconds option. The TCL manual

explicitly states that without this switch the return result is platform

dependant. The OpenACS code works at the millisecond granulartiy and silently

assumes that 1 millisecond equals 1000 clicks which is not necessarily true.

I used this shell script to automatize the replacing:

#!/bin/bash

for file in `grep -lsr "\[clock clicks\]" /web/openacs-head/packages/ `; do

 echo "repairing $file"

 sed "s/\[clock clicks\]/\[clock clicks -milliseconds\]/g" $file > fout

 mv fout $file

done

And then grepped for

grep -r "expr.*clock clicks" /web/openacs-head/packages/

to manually remove the divisions by 1000.
