# EyeStrainReminder
|
|
|
|
A small background tool to remind the user of the "20-20-20" rule. Uses system notifications and sound cues. Made primarily for GNU/Linux, but should theoretically work with other environments.
|
|
|
|
First, you might need these packages:
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt-get install python-gobject libnotify-bin python-gst-1.0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Second, just install the tool and required [Python modules](setup.py) by cloning the repository and running:
|
|
```
|
|
cd EyeStrainReminder
|
|
pip install . --user
|
|
```
|
|
Run it simply with, or preferably put it to run on boot as:
|
|
```
|
|
$ eyestrainreminder
|
|
```
|
|
Optional parameters can be viewed through "$ eyestrainreminder -h". In short, it's possible to set a custom notification sound, mute the notification sound, turn off notifications by default and invert the tray icon colors.
|
|
In order to remove it, just run:
|
|
```
|
|
pip uninstall EyeStrainReminder
|
|
``` |
