i wish someone would make an app like this that can swap between "tweakr" profiles at given times

Oops, thanks for pointing this out! Fixed in new build 0.1.4-4

This should be solved with the fixed dependency issue, hopefully.

Hi,

first of all: I do love this application. It's easy to use and has a nice interface. It also seems to work perfectly.

One little bug:

1. Select "New event"
2. Select "Alarm" and switch to "Command execution"
You will see input fields "Enter name" and "Enter command" In both of them the first letter always is upper case. If you hit "Shift" first the first letter in the line is lower case.

Thanks a lot, Uwe

I looked into this, but atm I don't see a way to properly interact with the tweakr profiles. I contacted the author of tweaker and I guess we'll find a solution. Until then, Alarmed now supports switching between the default "silent" and "general" profiles as of 0.1.5-2!

I'm pretty sure this is standard behavior for input fields in all of maemo! You can see this happening anywhere. It's called "auto-capitalization" and you can turn it off in "Text Input" in the n900 settings menu. Apart from that, it should be possible to turn this off for single text fields but it seems like this feature is not available in pyside yet. When it becomes available, I'll insert it for the exec line.
Btw, note that now it should be possible to put in complete commands into the line including arguments. So it's no longer neccessary to write seperate scripts and put them in.

This is a restriction in the alarmd scheduling daemon provided by maemo. They just didn't include that, sorry ;)

Very interesting app! Is there a way to add a feature of day/time based call forwarding? ie. forward calls on weekdays to google voice. thanks.

It's definitely possible, I'm adding it to the planned features list and will be looking into it :)

I've installed 0.1.6-2 and tried a couple times to set profile switching, both tweakr created and fro general to silent.

Neither appear to be working?

I'm sorry, it appears to be working fo me, can you please run it from a command line? to do so, open an X-Terminal from the applications menu -> more and type in /opt/alarmed/alarmed.py
try to set the profile with a timing rule and post any output it gives (e.g. to a service like www.pastie.org or in this forum.) also, please paste the complete outpu of 'cat /var/cache/alarmd/alarm_queue.ini' so I can debug the problem. thanks :)
