- This small program allows time alarms to be set on a PC running MSDOS.
-
- Why yet another reminder program?
- - It's free and easy to use.
- - Memory overhead is a tiny 352 bytes.
- - Alarms can repeat hourly, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly.
- - Hundreds of alarms can be set with different alarm noises/tunes.
- - 20 tunes and noises included and user can add new alarm noises/tunes.
- - No memory wasting toy notepad/calculator facilities.
- - Alarm sounding doesn't stop a running program.
- - Works under windows 3 - it is faster but less flexible than "Calendar".
-
- Why not?
- - Can't handle "first/last Tuesday of month".
- - Must exit, or shell out of, current application to silence an alarm.
- - Not graphically oriented and doesn't use a mouse.
- - Adding new alarm noises/tunes is tedious.
