NAME

xdalarm - sound an alarm for an appointment

SYNOPSIS

xdalarm [-usage] [xdiaryOption ...] [toolkitOption ...]

DESCRIPTION

The xdalarm utility is attached to a diary database and reads the appointments defined there. For each appointment, you can define an alarm and when the alarm time is reached, xdalarm will pop up a window with the appointment text.

You will need one xdalarm process running since this process will check all your defined calendars. xdalarm is started automatically from xdiary when needed; for each calendar you can select if alarms should sound or not.

OPTIONS

All standard Xt Intrinsics toolkit options are supported. In addition, xdalarm supports several other options which are described in the XDiary on-line help.
