BTDCountdown (Big Text Display Countdown) is a digital countdown timer displayed in large font on a window that is maximized to the screen so that it is clearly visible from a distance.

To ensure that the countdown time display is uninterrupted, the program automatically detects whether the screen saver is active and if so, it temporarily switches it off while the program is running and it also automatically disables the computer\\\'s power save/off mode when this program is running.

When this program is running, the user is able to customize the countdown time display by selecting a font type, style and size. Additionally, the user is able to change the text color and display background color.

The user can control the countdown timer using three push buttons: Start, Stop and Reset.
