#Persistent

; In this program, a pop-up window appears and encourages the user to get up and move around, to avoid the health hazard of sitting too much.
; The user can adjust the time interval if desired.
; I put this script in the Startup folder of the Start Menu so it runs whenever the system starts.
; Default values are set below:

; interval sets the time until the first pop-up appears (in milliseconds) 60000 = 1 minute.
interval:=60000

; oldVar sets the default period between pop-ups after the first (in minutes)
oldVar:=30

SetTimer, movement, 1800000
;MsgBox, First Timer Ran
return

	IfWinExist, GetUpAndMove
		{SetTimer, movement, Off

		}
	Else If (A_TimeIdle<(interval*0.75))
		{MsgBox, 3, GetUpAndMove Timer - %oldVar% minutes, Time to stand up, stretch, and walk around a bit!`nClick Yes to reset timer.`nClick No to change interval.`nClick Cancel to quit.
