I've released a minor update to my #xpomodmenu #X11 collection of utilities (a menu, timer window, and 'bell' daemon) which provides basic #pomodoro functionality. It's wrapped around @seninha's #pomod (you'll want my latest patches for it) and #xmenu tools:

https://github.com/morgant/xpomodmenu/releases/tag/0.3.1

What's changed? Reduced flickering of the timer window.

I maintain this for my own use under #OpenBSD with #MLVWM and doubt it's of interest to anyone else.

Release 0.3.1 · morgant/xpomodmenu

0.3.1 - 2025-07-29 Fixed: xpomoinfo: Reduced flickering by using tput(1) to move cursor and write over window content instead of blanking entirely before redrawing

A new release for my #xpomodmenu, a set of wrappers around @seninha's #pomod #Pomodoro timer:

https://github.com/morgant/xpomodmenu/releases/tag/0.3

This adds a new #X11 `xpomoinfo` status/timer window (just a wrapper around #xterm) and some further improvements.

Note: You'll want to apply my patch for pomod which fixes time display in `pomo info` too:

Been sick all week, so just getting around to releasing this minor update to my #xpomodmenu #X11 #pomodoro utility (a wrapper around @seninha 's #pomod):

https://github.com/morgant/xpomodmenu/releases/tag/0.2

It updates the `xpomodbell` script to add optional arguments for setting verbosity, Pomodoro work & break session durations, and the audible bell notification playback volume. This was primarily because I kept cranking my music and nearly blowing out my eardrums when a new cycle began. I already had #tinitus, thanks!

Release 0.2 · morgant/xpomodmenu

Added xpomodbell: Added support for parsing arguments, including: -h prints built-in help -v enables verbose output (default: disabled) -V <volume> sets audible bell playback volume (0..100; def...
