Hi everyone, I'm a total Pi Noob, and I'm trying to learn as much as I can to use the Pi for the family business (my family owns an escape room business).
2. Has a box to input a password: when the correct password is input the clock will stop counting down.
Does anyone know of an app that does this already, or if not, can someone point me in some starting direction as to how I'd write code to do this?
"my family owns an escape room business"
Good grief, that is curious. What is an "escape room"? Or an "escape room business"? You say that as if it is some kind of normal thing like "my family owns a trucking company"
I mean, perhaps I need to call you and get one.
Get me an escape room and I will make your count down timer for free!

Ahaha, it is a pretty normal thing in my city, I forget that not everyone has heard about it An escape room is basically a room that a group of 4 - 8 people are "locked" into (the door is never actually locked) and you have to solve a series of puzzles and riddles to get out before the time limit (usually 60 minutes). For example, you're locked in a spaceship with only 60 minutes of oxygen, or you have 60 minutes to get out of prison, that kind of thing. You should give one a try if there are any nearby you, I think they're a blast!
Thanks for the explanation. Never heard of such a thing. What city is that?
One company https://breakoutgames.com has locations in over 50 US cities.
Ah, I get it. This is all about corporate "team building".
THIS is EXACTLY what I need , but i don't understand if finally, the program attached works or not???!!!!
Where is the STOP PASSWORD line program??
With Raspbian STRETCH Full, I need, possible a FULL SCREEN (OR biggest in a monitor 800x600) countdown from 45 minute.
Raspbian STOP the countdown and shows the remain time if I press a single letter (IF IS MORE EASY TO DO) or a short word as "stop password" I decided!!!
Then I exit and relunch the program manually.
Time to find your coding pad and sharpen your coding pencil.
You should be able to hack something like https://stackoverflow.com/questions/308 ... ord-system into the code sample I gave earlier.
