Indicate missing config #3

Closed thled closed 1 year ago

thled commented 1 year ago

When I first started the tool I was surprised by the message IO Error: No such file or directory (os error 2). I didn't expect a timer tool to read a file.

I thought a hint that it needs a configuration file would be good. Thats what this PR is for.

Maybe a next step is a default config just to get started without errors if you want to try out the tool.

Thanks! You are absolutely right. I should focus more on improving user-friendliness now that most essential features are implemented. I'll start by adding a default config and 'Quickstart' documentation.

Can you document this change in the changelog under a "Changed" subsection? You can add your name along with the change if you wish.

I updated the changelog. Glad you like the change and even consider my suggestion about the default config.

Thank you for the great tool and keep up the good work.
