Historique du projet

Launchpad lists the project as created on 2008-12-01 and describes it as no longer maintained. Its upstream code was hosted in Bazaar on Launchpad, which fits the late-2000s pattern of small Unix command-line utilities distributed through source-hosting services and later packaged by system package managers.

Historique d'adoption

The available official record is thin, but package metadata in this batch shows utimer present in Homebrew and MacPorts, suggesting adoption mainly by users who wanted a tiny terminal timer available from Unix-like package managers rather than a graphical time-management application.

Modes d'utilisation

The Launchpad summary describes three basic uses: counting up for a fixed interval, counting down from a duration, and acting as a stopwatch.

Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

utimer matters mostly as a small-package example: a single-purpose CLI preserved by ports collections after upstream maintenance stopped.
