#### Pomodoro timer using figlet, cowsay, and lolcat

🍅 Implementation of the Pomodoro Technique using `figlet(6)`, `cowsay(1)`, and `lolcat` 🐮

**Features**

* Sends desktop notifications.
* Can't stop. SIGTSTP (`Ctrl`-`Z`) is trapped. Pomodoros are uninterruptible.
* Traps SIGINT to make `Ctrl`-`C` abandon pomodoros.
* Silly mode (or is it stern?) is enabled with `-s` (can be specified multiple times).
* Avoids using `clear` so the terminal doesn't flash.
* Hides the cursor.
* Disables echoing of stdin.
* Keeps the cow at the bottom of your terminal.
* Prints some stats when exiting: when pomodoros started and ended and the length of breaks (can be redirected to a file).

**Alias**

I recommend creating an alias such as

```
alias pomo='muccadoro | tee -ai ~/pomodoros.txt'
```

**Usage notes**

The first positional argument is the amount of minutes one pomodoro should take (default: 25). If you want 20-minute pomodoros, use `muccadoro 20`, for example. The program exits after four pomodoros have been completed and a longer break should be taken.

**Saving summaries to a file**

You may want to keep a record of how many pomodoros you did and when (and for how long) you took breaks. This is supported by simply redirecting stdout:

```
muccadoro >> ~/pomodoros.txt
```

If you want to save the summary but also have it printed to stdout, use:

```
muccadoro | tee -ai ~/pomodoros.txt
```

The `-i` (`--ignore-interrupts`) flag of `tee` makes sure the summary is correctly processed in case the pipeline was killed with `Ctrl`-`C` (which is the intended way to quit when doing less than four pomodoros).
