REQ: showing the current iteration

[mishaxz]

can you optionally show the current iteration? (# of restarts + 1 (because you had to start it the first time)) it could be something as simple as [iteration] .. e.g. [2]

• open Hourglass
• start timer (iteration 1)
• press R (restarts, iteration 2)
• press R (restarts, iteration 3)

I'm sure many people like me use it as a timer for sitting down to get some work done and then take a break, so knowing how many times you've sat down to work is useful.

I think an easy way to do this would be just to give a title option to display this info

also useful would be in this text being displayed, to display the total time of all iterations

@mishaxz What if the time was changed between restarts? Should it count as the restart?

[mishaxz]

I don't know, I never thought to do that. But I guess it would make the most sense just to clear the counter.

I always use 35m myself.. I really like how the counter counts past expiry.. so you can see how long you're still sitting at your computer without taking a break. Or how long you've been away from the computer.
