You can create a task to go at a certain time outside Workrave. That may be the easiest way to approach this. If you use linux, setting a cron job is the way to do this. If you use Windows, creating a task using task scheduler is the way to do this: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-CA/windows-vista/Schedule-a-task or whatever your version of windows dictates. I had set up a task to run on a guy's computer each weekday at 4:59 and that is how I did it.

With that one could define a data class. What I don’t know is, If there are any special cases in the source regarding the current three types of timers. Another point is, that not all of the above fields apply to all possible types of timers, so one probably needs another field specifying the Type with the program doing things differently according to that type (e.g. display different GUI controls, hide some fields, etc.). However this sounds like requiring a complete rewrite of the base parts of workrave and would result in workrave 2.0 or something… Regards Michael From: Omar B.

I think it would be a great idea to have the possibility to have a fourth timer for the lunch break. At the moment I’m trying to missuse some features and use the “microbreak” timer to remind me to have a lunch break. However this means that I can’t use the “microbreak” timer for it’s intened purpose and I don’t yet know if this has any other side effects. What do you think of that proposal?
