Grammartically Correct Countdown Timer

[Jmtyra]

I'm still learning AutoIt myself, but this took me a bit and I hope I can save someone else the headache.

Guess you could use it as a function and pass it the time as an argument if you'd like.

Enjoy!

Note: Should work ok, I ran a few 'tests' with different numbers and it seemed to work ok.

; timelimit is in seconds
$Timelimit = 130
$Timeleft = $Timelimit

Do 
; if we've got more then 60s & less then 120s, then it's only 1 whole min left + sec(s)
    If $Timeleft > 60 And $Timeleft < 120 Then
    ; if it's a whole min, no sec
        If Int($Timeleft/60) = $Timeleft/60 Then
            ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", Int($Timeleft/60) & " Minute", -1, -1, 1)
    ; if it's got trailing sec, *still* single whole min left
        Else
        ; if we've got single case sec
            If ($Timeleft - (Int($Timeleft/60) * 60)) <= 1 Then
                ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", Int($Timeleft/60) & " Minute " & ($Timeleft - (Int($Timeleft/60) * 60)) & " Second", -1, -1, 1)
        ; or plural sec(s)
            Else
                ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", Int($Timeleft/60) & " Minute " & ($Timeleft - (Int($Timeleft/60) * 60)) & " Seconds", -1, -1, 1)
            EndIf
        EndIf

; if we've got more then 1 whole min
    ElseIf $Timeleft > 60 Then
    ; checking for whole min only, no sec...
        If Int($Timeleft/60) = $Timeleft/60 Then
            ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", Int($Timeleft/60) & " Minutes", -1, -1, 1)
    ; if we have multiple min & sec
        Else
        ; if we've got single case sec
            If ($Timeleft - (Int($Timeleft/60) * 60)) <= 1 Then
                ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", Int($Timeleft/60) & " Minutes " & ($Timeleft - (Int($Timeleft/60) * 60)) & " Second", -1, -1, 1)
        ; or plural sec(s)
            Else
                ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", Int($Timeleft/60) & " Minutes " & ($Timeleft - (Int($Timeleft/60) * 60)) & " Seconds", -1, -1, 1)
            EndIf
        EndIf
; if we've got less then 1 min, only sec left + we can just use the var now
    Else
        If $Timeleft <= 1 Then
            ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", $Timeleft & " Second", -1, -1, 1)
        Else
            ProgressOn("", "Installer Time Left...", $Timeleft & " Seconds", -1, -1, 1)
        EndIf
    EndIf
    ProgressSet(($Timeleft / $Timelimit) * 100)
    Sleep(1000)
    $Timeleft = $Timeleft - 1

Until $Timeleft < 0

PS - I left the notes for logic flow

haha you misspelt 'grammatically'

Eh, oh well...

Great job!

It would be possible add a "pause" button?

And maybe some action (open file...) when countdown is finished?

Thanks!
