tprt2.c:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>

int event = 1234567890;
int current;
int interval = 10;
int main (int  argc, char *argv[])
{
  time_t now;
  current = time(&now);
  if (event - current > interval)
    printf("Time now: %ld Time until event: %ld seconds
\r",current,event - current);
  if ((event - current <= interval ) && (event - current >= 0))
    printf("Time now: %ld Time until event: %ld seconds
\n",current,event - current);
  if (event - current < 0 )
    printf("Nothing to see here!\r");
}

gcc tprt2.c

while true
do
./a.out
sleep 1s
done


Change event and interval values to test.
