Make waiting an extreme sport! Swoosh!

License: MIT GitHub top language Code style: black

What

This program takes a percentage and converts it to a date. As the percentage increases, the date goes back in time exponentially. This helps alleviate boredom caused by waiting.

How

Try running main_with_curses.py. If it dosen't work, you can troubleshoot with the curses section below. If it still dosen't work, run main.py.

Enter the amount of time you have to wait for. It will display a percent (and a progress bar, for main_with_curses) and a date and/or significant events on or near that date.

Curses

Curses is used to interact better with the terminal and allows this project to be better about printing things out. If main_with_curses.py says it's not supported, here are some things you can try:

Unix

It should always work. File an issue.

Linux

Make sure ncurses is installed. Some distros pre-install it, others might not.

Windows

pip install windows-curses

MacOS

I don't have a Mac to try things on, so I don't know if you can do it. If you figure this out, PRs are welcome to fix or document support.
