that was me :) I gave up holding out to patch it when Michael came out with his screensaver. This made it less of a priority to add to core server code. The alarm code simply hijacks the core server 'now playing' mode lines. The patch is still probably attached to the old bug report. The trick is to find it. Showing the time is on my list. I need to make the plugin code easier to deal with first. I want to figure out a way that allows multiple alarms just by adding copies of the plugin. I have to properly understand objects first. -kdf _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
