DESCRIPTION

To learn more about Pomodoro Timer, refer to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pomodoro_Technique

Running clipt without any options ( or any options except -c ) enters it into server mode, where it becomes a daemon. While in server mode, it can be interacted with through its Unix Domain Socket interface. The daemon creates and listens on a socket called ".clipt.sock" under the user's home directory. It makes the socket only accessible by the user. Daemon settings can be saved in a file called ".clipt.rc" under the user's home directory. These settings are loaded every time clipt runs. However, command line options take priority and override them.

Passing -c (--command) to clipt makes it the client to the daemon. Refer to option -c below to learn more about the commands that can be sent to the daemon.
