Sorry I should have clarified about the "Good alarms" thing... it should be printed out in the X-term session, not as a popup; the popup only appears when things are bad ;-)

i.e. on my tablet here I've got:
Code:
# flipclock -f

/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/flipclock/flipclock.py:4: RuntimeWarning: import cdrom: No module named cdrom
  import pygame
/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/flipclock/flipclock.py:4: RuntimeWarning: import joystick: No module named joystick
  import pygame
Cleared Dim

Alarm for Mon is valid
Alarm for Tues is valid
Alarm for Wed is valid
Alarm for Thurs is valid
Alarm for Fri is valid

(Hmmm I really have to clean up some of those pygame errors and things... is that just my old install of pygame, or do those errors appear for others too?).

Yea, last version of the flipclock added that alarm Icon thing, but since it's tied to the native clock app, you can't really do anything with it, it's just there to remind you that you do have an alarm set. One of the long term features down the road will be to add a custom "status bar" icon for flipclock alarms, so you get the icon and a way of setting/clearing flipclock alarms more directly... that's still a long way away at this point though.
