- Alarm
- =====
-
- Alarm is a simple little utility app that can trigger playback of
- sounds, display of images, and run UNIX commands at specified times.
- It comes with complete source code and is free. You may do whatever
- you want with this program, except that you may not sell it to someone
- else (for more than your cost of distribution). If you are compiling
- a CD-ROM of NeXT apps, by all means feel free to include this program!
-
- There are three alarms, each of which may be set independently, and
- each of which can do a different thing. Each alarm is triggered by a
- different means; one goes off at a specific time, one goes off x
- minutes after the app was launched, and the third goes off x minutes
- from when you set the alarm. Set the controls in the order listed on
- the control panel in order to set each alarm. (If you choose a UNIX
- command, you will be prompted for the command. It's output, if any,
- will appear in the console. This is like having a cheap version of
- “at”, but you must be logged in and running Alarm for it to work,
- unlike the “at” program.)
