Welcome to Taskbar Timer!

Taskbar Timer is a simple countdown timer that nicely sits in you system tray.

The timer can be configured via command line parameters which makes it very convenient to create shortcuts for default timing tasks such as "coffee is ready", "water bubbling", etc.

There are three preset timers for 1 minute, 10 minuts and 1 hour which roughly behave like a microwave timer. e.g. to set the timer to 32 minuts you need only press three times the 10 minute button and 2 times the 1 minute button.

When start Taskbat Timer, an indicator icon will appear on your windows system tray. When you click on the tray icon a pop-up menu will appear. All program functions, including the setup dialog box, are accessible from this menu. Starting the timer can be as simple as a mouse click on the popup menu. When the timer gets off a notification popup window will appear and an alarm sound will be played.

The program is created and tested for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows seven, but most probably it will work in other windows versions as well.

Installation

To install Taskbar Timer, run the self extracting installer, "100dof_ttimer_setup.exe" and follow the instructions.

When installation is complete, Taskbar Timer can be started from the Start menu. Alternately, you can double-click the executable in the installation folder.

Setup will also prompt to install Taskbar Timer on your startup folder. This will enable Taskbar Timer to start automatically whenever you login into your computer.

Actually, the program consists of a single executable so, the above installation procedure is not necessary at all. If you know what you are doing, just copy the executable somewhere in your disk and create a couple of shortcuts in convenient places (e.g. in the startup menu).
