Egg timer app for linux
You would think a count down timer would be standard in any operating system. its not. Least in linux. Oh you can make one in terminal, but I mean an nice big colorful full screen one. None I found, least no independent ones, not built into a particular desktop.
Well I found one: https://sourceforge.net/projects/time-limit/files/ There is an linux rpm version and a windows exe version. Now easiest way to use a rpm in Debian/Ubuntu related systems, use a program called "alien" Then something like:
So anyway works in MINT and Bodhi. One bug I found. There is an option to run a command after it reaches zero. This does not work, I was trying to use it to play an mp3 siren sound with a commandline mp3 player, I used one called mpg123. Nothing. Nothing wrong with the command, works when I run it in terminal. The alternate exit command does work. I think a noise of some kind would be useful.
