wakeAlarm-0.04 pet and tgz
Posted: Tue 16 Nov 2010, 08:51
Here's the wakeAlarm-0.04--this is an improved alarm clock.
The alarm trains the user to wake to a set of ringtones in a loop.
It works reliably at a lower volume than other musical alarms.
User can accept defaults or select own ringtones and timing.
After the alarm goes off there is an option to play MRLs (music, video...) so it's a lot like a regular alarm crossed with a multimedia alarm.
Simple to use. One job, one program, uses features pre-installed in OS.

Runs from Pschedule. As written uses xine, but can be edited to use any media player, really.
I prefer xmms2, but perhaps you like pmusic?
It also depends on gtkdialog3 for the push-button control. This is pre-installed on most Puppies.
To make it ready for other players download the tgz, extract, and edit.
To install and use as-is get the pet package.
Please note, one should not have spaces in path or filenames. You can work around the limitation, but as many Puppy scripts, it is not built to handle this.
This program has been around in one or an other version since 1994/5 under msWin3.11
The original samples are still here, though as ogg not wav files.
I originally wrote this for my late wife. [Always my love, always her lover.]
Give it a spin around the block. I'm sure you'll love it.
