Other Help Topics :: .wmmclockmonrc

I can make a application to start when there is an alarm in wmclockmon (with MessageCMD) but i can't get it to open a document.

The whole purpose of it all is to make a screen popup when there is an alarm (with a text of course like: "Time to take a break!")

This is what my .wmmclockmonrc looks like (part of it)

Backlight = Off
Blink = Yes
H12 = False
TimeMode = 0
MessageCmd = /usr/local/bin/pw
Locale = Yes
ShowCal = Yes
CalAlrms = On
Alarm = On@15:45-1

Any hints?

Sorry... I worked it out...

Right above the "MessageCmd" line in the .wmclockmonrc ,
there is a "Command" line ..
I put this ...

exec /usr/local/bin/pw wake.pw

and it opened my document.
That same syntax wouldn't work for the MessageCmd line ..

If you still need a " play " to execute, place them both on the line
with a ; between the commands ..

EDIT >
Looks like you made it work, but thanks for sharing ..
The wmclockmon seems more functional than wmclock..
How about an extension for the rest of us ?
