Oct 9, 2026, 2:12 PMI use Minuter by @FreakyFwoof every week so that I start my shows on the second almost every time. I love it so much I feel like more people than just NVDA users should be able to use it. ...So I changed that. Minuter For Windows is here, with a Mac version coming soon. The experience is very much Andre's vision, just...screen reader agnostic. Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Backspace shows or hides it to the tray.

Oct 9, 2026, 2:15 PMI'll say that Rust might not have been optimal for this, the executable's size is 10 MB and requires a C library to compile WXWidgets. This might be the first thing I've ever released that might be a touch bloated. I realized, too late, that Zig and Capy exist and that Minuter might have been an excellent test case for both.
Oct 9, 2026, 3:31 PMMinuter 0.2: RUNGUI replaces WXDragon, cutting the binary size in half. Tradeoff is that this is a window, not a dialogue, so NVDA doesn't speak that introductory text. Nothing changes other than cosmetics and a smaller binary and less usage of RAM.
