A weekend rust project to learn the language, replaces some bash scripts I have been using to create ephemeral alerts (using i3-nagbar and paplay). Probably not very useful to anyone else.

• Start nagd or run it as a daemon.
• use nag to communicate with it:
  • add a nag
    • duration in the form of '-d-h-m-s' such as '1d' or '5h3m' or '4m5s'
    • a name to display in the nag bar
    • an optional path to a local sound file to pass to paplay.
    • ex: nag add 1h "YOUR TOTINOS™ PIZZA ROLLS ARE BURNING!" "~/sounds/campfire.wav"
  • list will print out the list of nags currently active
    • ex: nag list
  • edit nags will open up nvim and allow you to add, remove, or edit nags.
    • ex: nag edit

When the timer is up, the i3-nagbar is triggered and the sound plays. if you dismiss the bar, the sound will stop.
