pClock 0.8.2 - Time tools
In my clone of pclock calledpuppy clock
I made a change in how countdown is shown.
In the countdown feature I now have an application chosen
that should make the feature more understandable.

After setting an alarm you could then open pscheduleThanks. How does it use pschedule?
System > pschedule
and press the edit button to make more alarms.
But it would be simpler to launch pclock multiple times to make multiple
alarms.
If you want a simple countdown alarm then try clicking the 'Countdown'
button in the opening page
enter the countdown
aplay /path/to/sound
I'm not sure if loops are allowed???
But maybe a script that you write will play, and the script can have looping in it.
Here's a site that explains how to write a script that loops endlessly
http://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide/Infinite_while_loop
I think this script should loop endlessly barking like a dog.
Make sure it is executable and place in executable path ie bin or sbin folder
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
while true
do
aplay /usr/share/audio/2barks.wav
sleep 15
done
This command just puts a message up to screen.
.
Running a script like below just causes problems
when I use the countdown feature because it repeats the script.
It might be useful to have an option box to shut off repeating.
Here's some scripts that cause trouble...
but they work fine if launched from terminal.

open pschedule to make more of them.
I wonder if a countdown and an alarm can be made simultanuous?

My original suggestion was to set one alarm with pclock and thengreengeek wrote:This is the part I am having trouble with. If i launch
' pclock multiple times each instance behaves the same - they don't
respect the different alarm times that I set.
open pschedule to make more of them.

pClock 0.7.2 - Time tools
Hello zigbert,
I'm unsure if this is the proper place to ask this question. There appears to be an issue with either PupClockset or JWMRC tray or ? I'm not even sure if Pupclockset is part of this thread. Please excuse my ignorance on this issue.
When the new year rolled over in Pacific Time on west coast of USA, the clock set in lower right hand corner did not turn to the correct date.
I repaired it using the standard procedure of Pupclockset. Somehow when it updated to correct date it also added the app to the launcher portion of the JWMRC tray.
The JWMRC desk launcher doesn't show it present but it is there.
How do I remove the pupclockset from the launcher bar?
See screenshot of what I could research so far.
Thank you for any assistance or redirection you can offer.

You're right about that this has nothing to do with pClock
Remove it by deleting the first line in /root/.jwmrc-tray starting with
<Clock format ...
The tray manager is made for managing the jwm tray. You'll find it in /usr/local/jwm_config/tray
