Here is a link to download.
After some time I come with a new plugin. It is basically a scheduler (but with extra features egg timer).
Because the plugin called Scheduler, you've got (the author is krambriw), I gave the name of the plugin SchedulGhost.
This new plugin can (but not in all cases !) to replace the Bartman's plugin Timer (so then there is no need in configuring both plugins).
Philosophy of control (configuration) SchedulGhost plugin is somewhat different from previous Scheduler or Timer plugins.
I relied on the following assumptions:
1) I think it is better able to manage all the schedules and timers in one place (using a single configuration dialog),
than to have a specific dialogue for each schedule or timer.
2) I think it is advantageous to be able to open this central configuration dialog without having to open the main window EventGhost.
3) The plugin has a built-in option to log its events into a text file.
4) To change the time settings of Egg timer is also not necessary to open the main window EventGhost.
5) Is it possible to have more Egg timer with individual settings
6) All schedules and timers can be individually or collectively, to disable or enable with the use of actions. With other actions is also possible to add and delete schedules (without opening the configuration dialog).
The plugin is quite complicated and it gave me a lot of development work. It is very difficult test all possible situations
and it is very likely that it contains bugs. I therefore welcome, if anyone of you try the most detailed test of this plugin.
I welcome too, if they find someone who will check all the English texts and draw attention to my mistakes. I unfortunately do not speak English.
That is why I am not able to write an instruction manual. On the other hand, however, I believe that the dialogs are intuitive enough,
and you'll be able to use them.
I hope you will enjoy SchedulGhost and you will wish to use.
I think a lot more than words can tell you pictures. Due to the limitation of the number of attachments for other pictures I make a new post.
Pako
