timer

---

timer takes in an amount of time in seconds as an arg and rings the terminal bell forever after it has slept for that amount of time. i made it because i wanted to wake up from my nap in front of my laptop with the terminal bell.

example usage

---

# this will set a timer for 60 seconds
./timer 60        

# without args, this will set a timer for 2 seconds
./timer

# to compile

# if you want to have `timer` accessible from everywhere 
sudo ln -s ~/<path to timer>/timer /usr/local/bin/timer
