peaclock

peaclock shows a responsive clock in the terminal, nice to show in a terminal or pane of any size. By default it shows a binary clock, but more configs can be added.

The config, .config/peaclock/config, sets:

Setting	Value
View	binary (switch to digital, ascii, date or icon)
Time	24-hour, with seconds and the date (Tue 13 Oct - 02:30:05 pm)
Size	fills the pane, keeping a 2:1 ratio
Colours	Lasik: light blocks on dark navy
Timer	40 minutes; sends a desktop notification when done

Setup

The installer copies the config to ~/.config/peaclock/config, but doesn’t install peaclock itself: it’s built from source, see its README. Then run:

peaclock

The peaclock alias adds --config-dir ~/.config/peaclock so it finds this config.

The timer’s notification uses notify-send, so it only works on Linux desktops.
