IntroductionA small .NET 2 WinForm application which alerts you at a set time. Since I like to read and program while doing the really boring-ass mining, I needed something to prompt me to dump my cargo into a can before the lasers stopped and I waist ore. This tool does just that. For any given integer of seconds, which you set to match your cycle time, the timer will count down and play a sound at zero. 
Detailsa short list - For a quick start, type in the seconds of your miner's duration and hit enter. The timer will start on enter in the Duration text field
- Right click on the Duration text field for a selectable list of common times.
- Under Settings you have the ability to use a notification icon (system tray icon). Once enabled you can:
- Hide the task bar icon for the Miner Reminder
- Show Balloon Alert--alerts will popup from your notification area (system tray)
- Start and stop the timer from a right-click menu on the notification icon
- Other functions from the notification icon menu
- Other Features
- Disable sound
- NEW - Change the .wav file to anything on your system
- NEW - Save user settings
Future Features- Properly copy/paste the cycle time from the info page of the miner into the seconds text box of the Mining Reminder
- Leave your Suggestion! (and of course, "delete it from the internet", is a viable option :) I am open.)
- Very light on the suggestions, come on don't be shy (:

Hate to do this, but someone beat you to this : http://comlinkonline.tripod.com/mrxofar_eve/id3.html
It's all good.
The ability to disable the sound played, if you can implement that relatively soon. It's kinda irritating to be listening to calming music and have JANGLEJANGLEJANGLE blast in your ears. With the amount of Mountain Dew I drink, I can't afford to have something else causing heart palpitations too.
Yeah, I will see what I can do for you. Haven't look at the code in a year, this should be interesting. :)
I have created a new version 0.1.4 which includes an option under settings to disable sound. Funny, it took me longer to create the installer then make the update. (:
I suggest uninstalling your current version before installing the new one.
New Version Created, 0.1.7 Adds the ability to save user settings and select different .wav files
Whoa, crazy dude, I've never seen a response from a developer this fast. Literally 6 hours from "I make a comment" to "The new version's out". Impressive. I think I'll give this tool another chance.
Cool. Hey you caught me on a good day! (:
