Healthy Eyes

Quiet reminder to take a break every half an hour. When the circle is red, give your eyes a rest by looking away from your monitor, then click the circle. Why it's important

This reminder is made without annoying notifications, just a silent color change for you to notice, every half an hour. Code is heavily inspired by InternetTimeApplet from stefan.

It works nicely for me, just to be aware of how much time I see the screen, I like that it is not invasive.

Definitely not the kind of applet you'll want mixed with your systray or window list. It's REALLY just a circle that changes color for a minute every 30min. You HAVE TO NOTICE IT for it to be useful. I mean, I totally get the idea, but you'll need a decluttered panel to use it - sadly, I don't have this luxury.

How does this work? My circle never turns red. is there some dependency I should install?

Yesterday I noticed, it had actually turned red once. So maybe i just didn't notice it before. Perhaps, it can be extended, so we have to manually turn it back to green once it's red?
