gCountDown v1.0: Systray countdown timer for Linux

Wednesday, September 7th, 2011

I’ve released v1.0 of the gCountDown program.

gCountDown is a very simple alarm countdown timer. It sits in your system tray where you can click it to set an alarm. Once the time runs out, you will be alerted.

This release adds the ability to play a sound when an alarm goes off pops up a menu on right-clicking the icon so you can quit the application and has some minor bugfixes. A Debian/Ubuntu package is now also available.
