    Or point to what is the default "choice".

    Also a quick thought... [space] does stop the counter but freezes the
    screen. It would be nice if it would change the display to acknowledge
    the fact that the counter is paused. Maybe changing the number of
    seconds to "paused"?

    Other than that, I must join the cries of "I like this"! :)
