Powerpro alarms do not have a title "PowerPro Alarm" so there's no
way I know of uniquely identifying an alarm window when it opens. An
alarm when triggered here produces a window with the title equal to
the alarm's text. I tested your suggestion with an alarm titled
"Test" and it did not work.

This behavior is apparently not affected by using the "cursor to
button except" feature in pproconf.

I don't see how your suggestion could possibly work unless you set an
alarm beginning with the text "PowerPro Alarm". I use a variety of
alarms throughout the day to remind me of various things that I need
to do. It occurs to me that in order for your approach to work, I
would have to begin EVERY alarm with the text "PowerPro Alarm"
