Alarms

With this in the message area: 

AT 5:30 Time for dinner
choose 'Go' to schedule an alarm. When 5:30 eventually comes around a window will pop up saying 'Time for dinner'. There's a close button to make it go away. 

IN 10 Get a drink of water
This alarm will happen in 10 minutes. 
EVERY 30 Give thanks for this day
This happens every 30 minutes until you Cancel it.

If the alarm message begins with 'SP_' then it is just spoken, not shown. 

IN 20 SP Wake up!
If ends with '_SP' then it is both shown and spoken (without the SP, of course). 
IN 30 Wake up! SP
If the message is not spoken then the alarm sound is played at the time the alarm is raised. The alarm sound is set in Browse-Configure-Sounds (at the bottom) but can be overridden by suffixing the message with 'PL soundname' where the 'soundname' is the name that appears in Configure-Sounds. 
IN 20 Wake up! PL chimes2
Note that quitting Sue Center will cancel all pending alarms.
