SimpleTimer

SimpleTimer is a project mainly written in OBJECTIVE-C and C, based on the GPL-2.0 license.

SimpleTimer is a Mac OS X utility to easily create reminders (aka kitchen timers)

SimpleTimer 1.3.1

Description: With SimpleTimer you can create timers and reminders for your daily chores or duties. The user interface allows you to quickly set up a reminder (e.g. to remember to do laundry 45 minutes from now), but it's easy to enable more advanced scheduling operations. (However, SimpleTimer does not aim to replace advanced scheduling utilities like cron.) When the timer expires, you can:

  • print a alert message on the screen,
  • open a web page with the preferred browser or mail application,
  • play a sound (MP3, AIFF, etc.)

Requirements: SimpleTimer runs on Max OS X 10.1 and higher. This is a Universal Binary, so it runs on PPC and Intel machines.

Installation: Just drag the SimpleTimer application icon wherever you want.

Note about the "At Date" field format: The "At Date" field accepts date/time in the following format only: YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss (year-month-day hour:minutes:seconds) with 24-hour format.

Help needed: I am looking for testers for the following systems: Mac OS X 10.1, 10.2, 10.4, 10.5. The current SimpleTimer version has been tested only on Mac OS X 10.6 (intel) and 10.3 (ppc). If you are interested in contributing to SimpleTimer, please email me and we'll work something out. Your name will be included in the credits.

License: This software is free under the terms of the GNU GPL license. You should find the license in the ``COPYING'' file included in the disk image, or through the Online Help. If you can't find it, please look at http://gnu.org/licenses/
