Keyboard Shortcuts

There are currently two global keyboard shortcuts, which can be enabled in Preferences/Options,

  • <ctrl><super>T - show end time in panel
  • <ctrl><super>K - stop next timer to expire

It is possible to edit the shortcuts in dconf-editor, or with the following script,

$ kitchentimer@blackjackshellac.ca/bin/dconf-editor.sh

Alarm timers

You can also specify alarms as timers with the syntax,

name @ HH[:MM[:SS[.ms]]] [am|pm]

The time_spec can include am/pm or use 24 hour time.

alarm @ 5am
alarm @ 11:30pm
alarm @ 23:30
alarm @ 8:45:00.444am

for example, to create an alarm timer that goes off at 5am tomorrow,

taxi @ 5am create

taxi @ 5am running

Click the regular timer icon for a running timer to make the alarm persistent, the icon will change to an alarm clock. Here the pool timer alarm will ring persistently until the notification is closed. The tea alarm will ring as defined in the play sound setting.
