I'm trying to write a shell script that would show me the next enabled alarm. I found out that:

Code:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.time /com/nokia/time com.nokia.time.get_cookies_by_attributes dict:string:string:"enabled","1"

...will give you all the cookies for enabled alarms and that:

Code:

dbus-send --system --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.time /com/nokia/time com.nokia.time.query_attributes uint32:cookie

...will give you the attributes, including recurrence and time, of the alarm.

My poor skills with scripts haven't yielded results yet but maybe someone with more skills might make this happen more quickly...
