Linux Mint (Cinnamon) does not come with a timer or stopwatch pre-installed. I didn't realize this until I needed a stopwatch a few weeks ago only to find nothing.

There are tray applets available for this, but none that combine both a timer and stopwatch, so you have to deal with two extra icons in your tray or just use Google.

KDE has one, but it's a confusing interface for non-power users, since you need to tell it what to do at the end. If it just defaulted to an alert, it would be perfect.

That's interesting considering GNOME (which Cinnamon is a fork of) has one by default, curious why they would remove such thing (or was it not there to begin with when they forked?)
