Attached is my modified code to get a reasonable approximation of
SuperDateTime using CustomClock.

Included is my:
Modified SuperDateTime plugin (I had to un-par it)
Changes include:
- added a JSON SDTstring method.  This accepts a SDT string and returns
parsed values (%h -> 78% for humidity)
- added a JSON SDTicon method.  This only returns current conditions
icon value (26 -> 26.png, the cloudy icon)

Modified CustomClockHelper plugin
Changes include:
- added weathertext and weatherimage to the dropdown so it would save. 
Yes, I should have been consistent.  I wasn't, sorry!

Modified CustomClock.lua plugin
- modified parsing so it works for the 2 new weather items
- added some code to deal with the random URL extension.  It uses the
URL stored in prefs, and adds a # + .png extension to get the file. 
Not 100% it will update as the day goes on, however.
- added a method to send prefs stored string to SDT and get back a
parsed SDT string.  Works reasonably well.

PLEASE feel free to make any changes necessary.  Between fighting LUA,
and hunting for documentation, I did my best.

Sample CustomClockHelper.prefs file that works in this case

PS: The PDF is a renamed ZIP, rename it back.  It includes my preferred
icon set (120x120 pix, high-contrast).
