Starts a countdown to TIME. Example values for TIME:
10, '1h 5m 30s', '12:00', '2020-01-01', '2020-01-01 14:00 UTC'.

and count forward.
Hotkeys:
E Show end time (countdown mode only)
L Lap (stopwatch mode only)
R Reset
SPACE Pause (will delay absolute TIME)
+ Plus (will add 10 seconds)
- Minus (will subtract 10 seconds)
Q Quit
positional arguments:
timespec TIME to countdown to. Example values: 10, '1h 5m 30s', '12:00', '2020-01-01', '2020-01-01 14:00 UTC'. If not given, operates in stopwatch mode.
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-a, --alt-format Use colon-separated time format
-b, --blink Flash terminal at end of countdown
-B, --no-bell Don't ring terminal bell at end of countdown
-c, --critical N Draw final N seconds in red and announce them individually with --voice or --exec-cmd (defaults to 3)
-e, --end Display target datetime of unpaused countdown
-f, --font FONT Choose from https://www.ascii-art.site/FontList.html or provide a full path to an OTF/TTF file
--font-charset CHARSET
Provide a string of characters of increasing visual density (e.g. " .oO#@") to render OTF/TTF pixels
--font-size N Set font size when using OTF/TTF
-p, --voice-prefix TEXT
Add TEXT to the beginning of --voice and --exec annunciations (except per-second ones)
-q, --quit-after N Quit N seconds after countdown (use with -b or -t) or terminate stopwatch after N seconds
-s, --no-seconds Don't show seconds (except for last minute of countdown and first minute of stopwatch)
-t, --text TEXT Text to display at end of countdown
-T, --title TITLE Text to display on top of countdown/stopwatch
-W, --no-window-title
Don't update terminal title with remaining/elapsed time
-v, --voice VOICE Spoken countdown (at fixed intervals with per-second annunciations starting at --critical; requires `espeak` on Linux or `say` on macOS; choose VOICE from `say -v '?'` or `espeak --voices`)
-o, --outfile PATH File to write current remaining/elapsed time to
--exec-cmd CMD Runs CMD every second. '{0}' and '{1}' in CMD will be replaced with the remaining/elapsed number of seconds and a more sparse annunciation as in --voice, respectively. For example, to get a callout at five seconds only, use: --exec-cmd "if [ '{0}' == '5' ]; then say -v Alex {1}; fi"
--no-art Don't use ASCII art for display
--no-text-magic Don't try to replace non-ASCII characters (use with -t)
-z, --time Show current time instead of countdown/stopwatch
-Z, --time-format TIME_FORMAT
