Windows version
Released  November 2009. Version 1.0

ABOUT
The Dudeism.com Pop-Up Relaxation Reminder is a simple but useful program that runs in your desktray and reminds you to take a break from staring at your computer screen and working too hard. 

CONFIGURATION
You can configure how often the breaks occur (default is every hour), how long the break lasts (default is five minutes) and what music/sound to play at the start of the break, during the break, and at the end of the break. You can also choose whether the program should start up with Windows or not.

INSTALLATION
Just double-click on the downloaded .zip archive to open it, then double click on setup.exe and follow the instructions. 

After installation, an icon called "Dudeism.com Relaxer" will appear on your desktop. 

To run the program, double-click on this icon. 

There will now be a small version of the same icon in your desktray (the right bottom corner of your screen). [Note: If you don't see the icon it could be hidden due to your taskbar settings - click the left "arrow"-type thing to expand the desktray.]

NOTE: Requires the Microsoft .NET Framework to run. This is included with Windows Vista and Windows 7, but users of Windows XP and lower (Windows 2000, Me, 98, etc) may have to install this package first.

OPERATION
To modify settings, right-click on the desktray icon. Choose "Preferences" and a window will pop up that will show various options. They should be self explanatory. Any time you wish to change the settings (change the music, change the break duration, etc.) you can return here and change the variables to better suit you. 

To quit the program, you can either do so from the desktray menu or from the preferences screen.
