How to install

git clone https://github.com/boctulus/cronos.git
cd cronos
sudo ln -s $(pwd)/cronos /usr/bin		

How it works

• Cronos is programmed for a moment in the future 'tf'

• Cronos is activated in (tf-tm_ant) with tm_ant = 5 [min] by default.

• Cronos can be triggered after (tf-tm_ant) if the system was in suspension or hibernation at that time but at most in tmax = tf + tm_dsp being tm_dsp = 10 [min] by default.

• The user can postpone the alarm for tm_rep = 5 [min]

• Alarm notification is dismissed after tm_dismiss = 60 [min]
