I finished Version 3.5 after attacking it all day.
Version 3.5 has a new --freq flag where you can specify the frequency of repetition. Please note that if you put --freq 1000 for instance, it will run 1000 iterations rapidly and then wait until the next second to do the next 1000. Trying to space each repetition evenly across a second was totally inaccurate as processor performance changes during runtime.
I added a --timer flag, with possible values of EXACT and INEXACT, as specified above.
Perhaps the most interesting update is the new Color feature. Now you can select the color of your text while running, as shown below.
I was able to compile in Linux for Windows using this compiler: x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++
Both versions 3.4 and 3.5 are now on my gitHub:
If you like, you can see the change log there in this file: Change_Log_MAX.txt
To see what colors are available, run: intention_repeater_max.exe --colorhelp
Let me know if the .exe works for you on Windows, since I am on Linux.

If you do not specify --freq or --timer, which are the defaults? Fastest and inexact? Also have you thought of adding short options? Like -F for --freq and -T for timer? Also you could add a rgb colour feature (0-255,0-255,0-255), and hex (#000000-ffffff). They allow for very fine colour picking, 16 millions. Note, some terminals only have 16 or 256 colours, and will approximate the chosen colour to the nearest equivalent. You can search rgb or hex color in a search engine to see examples.

Yes, if you do: intention_repeater_max.exe --help it will show you all the options. It tells the defaults there.

Did you read the edit?

Also, if you consider it important, you could add an option to change the terminal background's colour.

Yep, it has short options. RGB isn't possible as it is ANSI based for terminals, as far as I know. It probably isn't worth researching that.

I can see later about background color of terminal from these options.

I just learned that Windows handles terminal colors differently than Linux, so I'll have to look into that.

What colour do you think will be the best? I would think it depends on the Intention you are doing.

Yellow text on black background is my personal favorite.
I updated to version 3.6, which supports text colors on Windows now.
I used Wine to run the Windows .exe on my Linux, and it works great.
To run you can do something like this:
intention_repeater_max.exe --color YELLOW --dur 00:01:00 --intent "I am LOVE." --timer EXACT --imem 10 --suffix HZ

If you don't specify --timer, it will default to INEXACT, which is faster. If you don't specify --color, it will default to WHITE.
I'm wondering if I should make it YELLOW, cause that's my favorite, but it might not be others' favorite.
Background color can probably be set in the terminal you're using. I haven't yet found an easy way to set that in programming.

What does "anthro-MS-7893" mean?

Just the hostname given to me.

I'm liking Ubuntu. I had Linux Mint before, but it was buggy for me. Then Windows, one update, it crippled my system.
So came to Ubuntu, and it's great.
I changed my username anyway. It will show on future screenshots of the program.
