A Tiny Little Timer

Primary LanguageC

Just a tiny little timer written in C.

I mostly wrote this years ago when I was learning C as an exploration of GUI libraries and build systems. It uses a portable library called IUP and the Meson build system.

It should work on Windows and Linux, but I mostly used it on Windows.

Building

  • Install Meson and Ninja.
  • Install IUP.
  • Run meson build in the root directory.
  • cd into the build directory and run ninja: 
    cd build
ninja
  • You'll get an executable timer.exe (or just timer) in the build directory. Copy it along with alarm.wav and timer.ico to some directory.
  • Run and enjoy.

TODO

  • Make alarm in linux version persistent when the window is not focused
