• I should try to make a Rührei sometime.
• And at this point I think I should remove the ‘purely technical’ part from the blog description, since until now there was more cooking than solved technical problems.

Bash

Updated my timer script, now it outputs the time when the timer was set along with the reminder.

tm() {
    local N="$1"; shift
  (utimer -c > ~/s/sounds/outbash $N && mpg123 -q ~/s/sounds/tib.mp3  &
      zenity --info --title="Time's Up" --text="${*:-BING} \n\n $(date +'%H:%M:%S %d/%m')")
}

\n for the newline, $() to insert command output in variable (though if I understand right backticks would have also worked), and date’s format because I will probably remember the year.

EDIT Doesn’t output the date when the timer was set, only when executed :C Need to move it to its own variable, I gues TODO for tomorrow. EDIT2 DONE!

tm() {
    local DATE=$(date +'%H:%M:%S %d/%m')
    local N="$1"; shift
  (utimer -c > ~/s/sounds/outbash $N && mpg123 -q ~/s/sounds/tib.mp3  &
      zenity --info --title="Time's Up" --text="${*:-BING} \n\n $DATE")
}

Python

The googletrans python module uses Google Translate’s web api to translate text. Look extremely useful, I should make a small CLI script for this. I seem to translate random stuff quite often.
