TiTimer

tiː ˈtaɪ.mər short of TinyTimer and also refers to TeaTimer

A very simple CLI utility to run a timer for a specific period of time.

Written with 0 code dependencies (but uses module-alias just for import aliases)

Can parse a string in a format 1h20m30s. Extra blocks (hours and minutes) can be skipped, e.g. 30s.
