for anyone trying to use this on windows you can add this function to your powershell profile

# --- The Main Function ---
function Start-PomoTimer {
    param (
        [string]$TimerType
    )

    $pomoOptions = @{
        "work"  = "50m"
        "break" = "10m"
        "short" = "5m"
    }

    # --- REMEMBER TO UPDATE THE PATH OF THE CLONED REPOSITORY HERE ---
    $timerPath = "D:\timer\timer.exe"

    if ($pomoOptions.ContainsKey($TimerType)) {
        $duration = $pomoOptions[$TimerType]
        Write-Host "Starting '$TimerType' timer for $duration..."
        & $timerPath $duration -n $TimerType
        Write-Host "'$TimerType' session done!"
    } else {
        Write-Host "Invalid timer type: '$TimerType'. Available types: $($pomoOptions.Keys -join ', ')"
    }
}

function Start-PomoWork {
    Start-PomoTimer -TimerType "work"
}

function Start-PomoBreak {
    Start-PomoTimer -TimerType "break"
}
