Hi all,
The alarm has a new bug, also related to the regex-ing, I think. A
Nonymous reported it as a response to my e-mail cited below.
Here's the deal;
If you don't use hh:mm format, but h:mm, the regex for point in time
doesn't match, but the one for number of minutes does.
So, if your current time is 08:00, and you run
alarm 9:15
it's going to fire at 08:09, i.e. 9 minutes into the future, with a text
of ":15". The behavior appears somewhat random, since it tells you:
Alarm set for 08:09.
when you know you typed in 9:15.
I believe the allowed input should be
alarm hh:mm [text]
or
alarm mm [text]
I think it should either accept single-digit hours, or disqualify
unrecognized formats. One way would probably be to require a whitespace
between minutes and text... My regex knowledge isn't great and I'm
pretty busy at my real-life work, so I'd be ever so grateful if someone
else could look into this before the weekend.
Thanks,
Kim
