- Clockchimes creates a cron job that runs a sox based bash script.
- The script plays clock chime sound files based on the system time.
- As of v0.3 the script plays multiple chime types:
- * Ave Maria
- * Voice sample
- * Westminster (default)
- * Whittington
- The package installs a config file: /etc/clockchimes.conf.
- The config file enables the selection of:
- * chime type
- * play either, or both, chimes and strikes
- * increase or decrease volume
- The package has sample KDE desktop files that enable single-click
- changing of the chime type played. The files can be found at
- /usr/doc/clockchimes-x.x/ and copied to the KDE desktop:
- * Ave Maria Chimes.desktop
- * Westminster Chimes.desktop
- * Whittington Chimes.desktop
- * Voice Sample.desktop
- The package installs a crontab file: /etc/cron.d/clockchimes
- The crontab runs the script on:
- * 00, 15, 30 & 45 minute
- The package no longer modifies /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root
- file. Instead the package installs /etc/cron.d/clockchimes as the
- controlling crontab. The user no longer has to manually remove
- crontab entries after an uninstall of clockchimes-03 or greater.
