Q-DIARY and ALARM I've just put two new freeware programs of mine onto my website.
Q-Diary is a personal diary program, which lets you schedule events for given dates and times in a similar way to a paper diary. Events with a date, time and short message are entered into a diary database, with the program displaying daily diary pages via a calendar-style display. Click on the date of the page you wish to display. Facilities are included to display "imminent events" (e.g. a list of diary entries due within the next 15 minutes), and to set alarms to go off (with up to 8 optional warnings ahead of time) when the diary entry is due. Q-Diary has the facility to activate external alarm programs, allowing you to write your own programs to handle diary entries as they fall due. Alarm is a program which may be used with Q-Diary or used independently. It can handle the alarms from Q-Diary, or it can let you enter a time and description of some event to happen today and when that time falls due it can either issue an alert message for that event, or even execute a program at that time. Up to 8 advance warnings can be set at periods from 2 minutes ahead up to 90 minutes ahead. Both programs are pointer driven and require Window Manager 2 (i.e. SMSQ/E or QDOS with pointer environment version 2 or later). Both programs are available from my website, at www.dilwyn.uk6.net/utils/index.html -- Dilwyn Jones _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
