Revision history [back]

There are other questions about snooze, but I find they are either too broad about alarm in general, or too specific about how it should be implemented.

It is possible to do set the global default snooze time, but I'm interested in setting the snooze time per alarm like the N9.

The use case is a simple quick way to be reminded repeatedly every X minutes to do some task other than waking up. eg.

• Buy milk after work (once-off, nag every 5 minutes starting at 5pm)
• Bring clothes in if raining (I always wash before noon during one of the weekends, so: every saturday & sunday, nag every 15 minutes starting at 12pm)

Then I can dismiss the snooze, once the job is done.

The output of timedclient -h looks *as if * it is possible, but it sure isn't straightforward and looks like it might affect the calendar, I don't know. But I would be interested to see how this command would like, if anyone has already figured it out and would like to share.

In any case, a UI is needed to really solve this. Thanks.
