There is already exists keybinding (Esc or Ctrl-C) to stop countdown w/o running next command. It is will be helpful to add keybinding (e.g. q, s or n) to skip countdown (exit with 0 code) and run next command.

It doesn't handle resizing the terminal window, It accommodates the terminal size in the beginning and then doesn't care about the window resizing.

P.S. I suggest starting the timer from zero and increasing when the countdown is started without any argument.

Thanks so much for this terminal timer. Any plans to add the ability to pause?

Please see attached screenshot

Hello,
I cloned the repo, but How can I install it, or run it?
Im new at Linux, I have Kali linux installed.
Many thanks

c:\users\stingyjack\go\bin\countdown 10s && say "final"

does the countdown, then...

'say' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

I'm guessing I need another tool installed for that. What am I missing?

Hello.

Is it possible to introduce some parameter/variable which will give me bigger font?

If I use the countdown on the FullHD (1920x1080) screen + terminal - it looks little bit tiny:

Thank you...

I notice that at least d for days is not supported. I use this occasionally with the sleep command to do stuff like open a link with xdg-open in a couple days. It's also a bit more readable to see 12 days counting down than 288 hours.
Not sure if sleep supports bigger units than days, but if it does, it could be good to have those as well. w for weeks should be fairly unambiguous, and if you start using capitals, M could be months.

d.Hours() will always return 0, because it is not the origin input

To replicate:

❯ date
2023-02-08T08:24:24 CET
❯ countdown 14:15
error: invalid duration or kitchentime: 14:15

Expected behaviour:
should be the same as the command

❯ countdown 02:15PM

There is no --help, -help, or help to show the usage. A blank command will do it.. but this is easy to implement.

Additionally this command already sends a notification on finish, it would be trivial to add a custom notification.

If you do not get to this before I do, ill probably submit a PR to fix this.

After installing go and do the install command, I still could not run countdown in Mac terminal, what's happening?

Is it possible to add title option of the countdown e.g. countdown 10m -title 'My project number 1'. This comes handy when you have several countdowns running.

alternately, if you don't want to make it annoying by default, have it look at COUNTDOWN_ON_ZERO_COMMAND in the environment, so I can do:

export COUNTDOWN_ON_ZERO_COMMAND='echo -e "\a"'

in my .profile.

This isn't really related to countdown, but in the gif on the main page, you have a pretty rad colorful prompt. Any chance you could provide the details on how to accomplish that ;)

Thanks!

I downloaded the latest version and when trying to pause the timer I can't. The keypresses are elsewhere. I'd gladly help debug if I get told how to.

i have an idea to create notification feature in this app.
My plan is to refactor this fork countdown-notifier and used beeep cross-platform notification for sending desktop notifications.
