[comp.emacs] Alarm clock for GNU Emacs time.el

ralph@laas.fr (Ralph P. Sobek) (08/24/90)

I am looking for an alarm-clock that runs under GNU emacs.  When
certain scheduled events arrive, it would pop to a window and display
some text, etc.  Has anybody done such a filter?  Or, is it possible
to modify time.el to get such behavior?

Thanks to all,

my-time.el is an enhanced version of time.el which provides an alarm clock
feature (among others).  It's available from the elisp archives on osu-cis, or
I can mail to people who need that.
