### Firewall A shell script to apply some Iptables rules.

Rules are automatically apply only for the UP interfaces.
If it's detect some softwares (eg. Apache2), Iptables rules for ports 80/443 are automatically apply.
Special rules allow all traffic throught a VPN:

firewall vpn

If a local file exists (firewall.local) it will also apply it. For personnal rules for example.

Tiny Bash script that take a number between 0 and 20 as argument and transform it into a digit with into a circle.

You can simply launch it with:

pomodoro "Work my french kiss"

Then the script will:

Create a ~/.pomodoro directory to store current task (current.task) and a summary of each week (eg week-42-2015.txt).
First, it's put task name and a timer (for $WORK_TIME) to the current task file.
Once the $WORK_TIME has been reached:
1. Log task name and worked time to the weekly log file
2. Toggle the sound to mark a pause
3. It's put a pause/break message for 5/20 minutes as current task
4. Delete the current task file

I can display my current task and it's timer wherever i want (tmux, herbstluftwm, …)
