This Windows recipe runs on the command line and does that with the arguments it accepts. Simple but effective, the program works well for remembering food in the oven among other things.</p>

Useful to enhance ones focus while working on something. The Pomodoro technique is described at <a href="http://www.pomodorotechnique.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pomodorotechnique.com/</a></p> <p>This script is an offline version of <a href="http://www.focusboosterapp.com/live.cfm" rel="nofollow">http://www.focusboosterapp.com/live.cfm</a></p> <p>It requires the <a href="http://www.mpg123.de/">Mpg123</a> program to play the audio and I obtained the ticking sounds from <a href="http://www.soundjay.com/clock-sounds-1.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.soundjay.com/clock-sounds-1.html</a></p>

Revision 4. </p> <p>Here I just want to keep it simple. If you want to execute a function every n second, this function should be competent. However, please note that the task is actually executed in another thread. </p>

Revision 2. </p> <p>We have tried to write an audit for our server to check our server's connection, status and other internal info and there are multiple threads invoking multiple tasks. So I came up with this simple utility that takes a job and runs it in a specific interval.</p>
