Story: User has a bunch of applications on their task bar, and it's generally more convenient (or habitual) to launch these apps in this manner. If a user could add "start xyz timer" action shortcuts to the task bar, then the user could use add these to their taskbar as well, rather than always having to open the TTK pane to launch the app.
Implementation: ttk.exe could take a cli arg --start-timer with arg1 being some identifier for a timer (either a new uuid, the process_name+display label... or some third thing (uniqueness requirement?). When launched in this manner, ttk.exe would:
- if another ttk.exe IsRunning: signal to the running ttk.exe to start that timer, and defer/exit.
- if another tkk.exe !IsRunning: startup + start that timer
Usage: User could create shortcuts like launch: "/path/to/ttk.exe --start-timer 'discord.exe - Quick Reply'", change the icon (edit the exe icon and add a lil' timer in the corner!), and pin to their task bar, alongside the default one
