What's where:

notes.txt -- ongoing work, notes, to-do items, etc.

/icons -- assorted icons and imagery for XStopwatch

    (note: "resample.csh", at the top level, starts from a

     high-resolution screen dump and generates preview images at all

     the correct resolutions; these downstream dependencies are all

     checked in, so unless you're changing the the icon, you don't

     need to rerun this csh script. Also note that you'll need the

     imagemagick package installed to run it.)

/mobile -- stub for the phone app (no actual code here)

/wear -- code that runs on the watch

    src/main/kotlin/org/dwallach/xstopwatch/ -- XStopwatch Kotlin files

    (if you dig into the Git history, you'll see that earlier versions

    were in Java, but it's all Kotlin now, going forward)

If you're looking to make some other stopwatch or count-down timer

produce broadcast notifications that are compatible with XStopwatch

and XTimer, then you should go have a look at:

	PreferencesHelper.kt: loads and saves persistent state to the Android

	shared preferences and also sends out equivalent state as broadcast intents.

	You can use the same action strings (from Constants.kt) to send out intents

	with the same sorts of values, and compliant watchfaces should render them

	properly.

	Receiver.kt: you don't just have to send out the state of your stopwatch

	or timer when it changes, you have to listen for requests to do the same,

	which means you need a receiver.

	AndroidManifest.xml: you'll see here where we set up the receiver. Also

	we have to make sure the service portion (NotificationService.kt) starts

	up at boot time, so we're ready to respond to these requests.

	Also, make sure to verify that XWatchface and CalWatch properly receive

	your broadcasts and that you receive theirs.

	(Xwatchface is written in Java and is a very simple example that you might

	prefer to use if you're trying to render stopwatches and timers.)
