Version 0.3.1 of package Tmr has just been released in GNU ELPA. You can now find it in M-x package-list RET.
Tmr describes itself as: Set timers using a convenient notation More at https://elpa.gnu.org/packages/tmr.html Recent NEWS: Table of Contents ───────────────── 1. Version 0.3.0 on 2022-05-17 1 Version 0.3.0 on 2022-05-17 ═════════════════════════════ The gist of TMR's May Release is that TMR is Maintained Rigorously—but enough with The Mostly Recursive acronyms! ⁃ This is the first version for which we produce a change log. The short story of previous releases: I (Protesilaos) was using and developing TMR (pronounced as "timer" or "T-M-R") as part of my personal setup for more than a year until I eventually contributed it to GNU ELPA. ⁃ What was once `tmr.el' is now split up into purpose-specific files: `tmr.el' (core functionality), `tmr-tabulated.el' (grid view), `tmr-sound.el' (audible notifications), and `tmr-notification.el' (desktop notifications). ⁃ The `tmr-with-description' command creates a new timer while always asking for a description. Whereas the standard `tmr' command prompts for a description only when invoked with a prefix argument. ⁃ The `tmr-clone' command copies the duration and optional description of an existing timer object into a new one. The operation is performed without further questions, except if a prefix argument is supplied: in that case the command will prompt for a duration and, if the original timer had a description, for one as well. The default values of these prompts are those of the original timer. ⁃ The `tmr-remove-finished' deletes all elapsed timers. This means that they are removed from the list of available timers and, thus, cannot be cloned. ⁃ The `tmr-timer-created-functions', `tmr-timer-completed-functions', and `tmr-timer-cancelled-functions' are hooks which can be used to control what happens once a timer is (i) created, (ii) elapses, or (iii) is cancelled. ⁃ Elapsed and running timers are displayed in a grid view with the command `tmr-tabulated-view'. The buffer looks like this: ┌──── │ Start End Finished? Description │ 09:22:43 09:32:43 ✔ Prepare tea │ 09:17:14 09:37:14 Boil water │ 09:07:03 09:57:03 Bake bread └──── ⁃ In that grid view, it is possible to create a new timer, or operate on the one at point to cancel, clone, redescribe, and reschedule it. ⁃ Thanks to Christian Tietze for implementing changes to how desktop notifications are handled. The overall effect should still be the same for existing users, though the implementation has been redesigned. ⁃ Thanks to Damien Cassou who is now is my co-author due to multiple contributions for `tmr.el', the addition of the grid view, and the splitting of TMR into numerous files. Please consult the Git commit log for the details. (I still am the maintainer.) ⁃ Christian and Damien have assigned copyright to the Free Software Foundation.
