 +~~NOTOC~~
 +====== xfce4-time-out-plugin - Time Out ======
  
 +Xfce4-time-out-plugin makes it possible to take periodical breaks from the computer at user-configurable intervals (specified in minutes and seconds). During breaks it suspends your screen (for a time period that is also configurable), preventing user input. It optionally allows you to postpone breaks for a certain time.
 +
 +The idea is inherited from [[https://wiki.gnome.org/Attic/drwright|DrWright]], a plugin originating with GNOME.

 +===== Usage =====
 +
 +In the properties dialog you have several options to configure the plugin. You can define
 +
 +  * the duration (length) of each break (default: 5 minutes)
 +  * the time between breaks (default: 30 minutes)
 +  * the postpone time (default: 2 minutes)
 +  * whether to allow breaks to be postponed
 +  * whether to display seconds in the panel
 +  * whether to display hours in the panel
 +  * whether to display the remaining time until the next break at all
 +
 +The plugin also offers a context menu which makes it possible to
 +
 +  * deactivate the plugin easily
 +  * take a break instantly
