Optional arguments

Arguments added through the command line will overwrite those in the config file.

• -w --work_time Overwrite the default time in minutes to work (default is 25 minutes)

• -a --audio_file Set absolute path to an audio file to play when the timer ends.

Data files

Data is persisted to disk at ~/.sylo/*.dat, if you remove the files you will lose your work history.
