    Hi Lidit, I've just released v3.22 which has a major overhall of the log window. Bug fixes and your changes are now included. I'll work towards commenting the code and making it open source - out of interest, why can't you install closed source software on your main computer? Thanks for your help and recommendations. CHris

    v3.21.1 Sent the command line option -countdown to the previous instance if Sleep# is already running.

    Hi Lidit, I've made a basic implementation which responds to the -countdown command line parameter. It simply sets the countdown to its last set value (like clicking the "Countdown Timer" menu item) and starts the timer. Is this suitable? You can also communicate with Sleep# using the custom Unified Remote interface (https://www.unifiedremote.com/) - this sends messages to the hwnd which Sleep# stores in %temp%\sshw upon startup. See the win.send commands in C:\ProgramData\Unified Remote\Remotes\Custom\Sleep#\remote.lua....

    It does, but not for starting the countdown unfortunately. I'll add a function to start the timer when I get a chance The program is designed to be ran in the background really - clicking the icon and then clicking "Countdown Timer" restarts the last countdown duration. Would the command line function need to work even if Sleep# was already running?

    Thanks for the feedback :) You're right, its not a feature I have really advertised - it's very useful but I don't really notice it when I'm playing music etc. with a countdown timer set - which I guess means it works well! Perhaps Grace Period isn't the best name, but it's not the easiest feature to describe. At least "grace" has two meanings though - both of which are applicable!

    I had the same problem - the countdown timer also doesn't work yeah? I thought it was something I had done, but you're right, it's happened after upgrading to the Creator's edition. I'm really sorry - I have no idea what they could have changed to break something that has worked through so many versions of Windows. Unfortunately I'm out of the country and away from my development PC so I can't fix it immediately. I'll do it as soon as possible though. Do other countdown toners still work to suspend...
