Does anybody know of a program I can use or something I can implement as a timer. I've sort of asked this question before but in slightly different words. It seems that this would be possible. For instance, I notice that arecord has a way to set duration and also set sleep--well, actually I know how to do sleep independently anyway. also, ossrecord, which is a part of the commercial program from opensound.com, actually shows the number of seconds as it records if you use the verbose option though, oddly enough, I don't think you can set duration on it. What I want is a program that doesn't have anything to do with recording, but that allows you to set a duration, sleep intervals if wanted, and also displays the time elapsed in seconds as it runs. Anybody know of a program that already does this or know where I can look for ideas as to how to set something like this up? Thanks. -- Cheryl "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
