SNV Timer is an unique program which combines advanced analog alarm clock and countdown timer. Its main feature are: an actuation time and a countdown value are set by immediate rotation of arrows with mouse, six (!) different actions per task, very nice customizable message boxes.
SNV Timer is able to execute the following actions: showing an elegant customizable message box, playing a sound file (including its random selection from a folder), showing a picture/video file (including its random selection from a folder) in full-screen mode, opening an external program or file or web page, a COM port command (to control external electronic devices), and a modem command (to call a phone number). These actions can be run in any combination.
In the alarm clock mode you can specify how often the chosen tasks run: daily, in the chosen days of the week, monthly, or yearly. In the timer mode you can set a number of executions and a time unit: days, hours, minutes, or seconds. The overdue tasks can be run on SNV Timer startup.
A wide variety of means are available to modify the appearance of the program. You can change the colors, fonts, background pictures, size, shape, shadow, appearing speed, and other properties of the most of SNV Timer's windows, message boxes, and tool tips (some features are unavailable in Windows 98/Me).
SNV Timer provides the ability to open its own multiple instances on one system. Each instance can have its own appearance and tasks. Finally, any instance of SNV Timer can be run on Windows startup (minimized to a tray icon, or hidden). It allows you to use SNV Timer as an original and nice planner.
