[Ann] SC_Timer 2.0, the Session Chair Timer

["J-P. Rosen" <rosen@adalog.fr>]

Adalog is pleased to announce the release of SC_Timer 2.0, with a
completely new interface and much more possibilities than 1.0.

In addition, it is a nice example of what can be accomplished with
GTK-Ada and Glade (to the non-believers: yes, it was fully designed with
Glade ;-) ).

SC_Timer is a very convenient timer for session chairs in conferences
who need to manage the presentation time of  speakers. The chair enjoys
a rich pannel to manage talk time (screenshot) and a secondary display
to let the speaker know the remaining time, prompt messages, etc
(screenshot). The  display turns yellow -for example- ten minutes before
time is over, then turns red five minutes before the end. When the
presentation time is over, it displays a big red flashing "Off".
Alternatively, the timer can be set to count up (from 0 to programmed
time) instead of down. Other features allow to manage various special
cases (pauses, increasing or reducing talk time...).
There is also a regular clock in the upper right corner that tells you
the current time.

Of course, the program is really a general count-down timer, and you can
use it for all your count-down needs!

Enjoy,
