I think the credits should be listed alphabetically; that way no one feels more or less important... ;-)
Of course 'balala' will almost always be first... maybe I should change my handle to _eclectic-tech :sly:

Sorry I forgot there was one icon used for the Chime.
Here's the latest package...

LOL. In the end, we all did something, it was just a joke about the order or who did what. ;-)

Believe it or not, I was actually going to place that idea above as well. :D For me it doesn't really matter, but it's true it all starts with balala... I will reserve my role of making formulas longer than they should be, in any code, though, and I want full credit for that - I bet even jsmorley would agree. :lol:

I'm getting a syntax error for the above - you forgot a 3rd "Long", it should be The Author of Long Long Long Formulas. See, I just upgraded myself, now I can even make phrases longer... :sly:
...and I'm not even mentioning regexes. Oh well, those are long by default anyway, so nevermind. :D
P.S. Joking aside, it's amazing what a slightly longer formula can do. It actually saves you from writing code 10 times longer than that formula or the length difference compared to its previous version.

Okay, everything is throwing me off.

The hide/show patterns are irregular which makes things inaccessible. I don't know how to turn on or off the timer. Settings button just shows the action chooser buttons. When the timer starts, it shows 00:00 00 and then starts the count. :confused:

Does this work fine for you?

LMAO. True tho. It shortens the code. And sometimes they are the only option. If not, that's where I come in... :oops:
...making a big ass script for simple things, which you claim can be done in native Rainmeter. :rofl:

Yeah all seems ok here. Not sure what the issue is?
Edit: I see the problem. I'll work on it. But I think it's the sort of thing that needs a formula! :lol:
