@mckinley Usually, I get away with
sleep 5m; echo -e "\aSomething, something"
. For longer waiting periods (checking on laundry, cake, etc.) I often want to know how much time is left, so I built this lengthy shell script: https://git.isobeef.org/lyse/gelbariab/-/blob/master/srem/srem?ref_type=headsUnfortunately, I don't remember where I got ringring.ogg from. Maybe it was shipped with KAlarm in KDE 3.5. I think it had the option to ring an alarm clock. That's useful when watching a video in fullscreen.

account. I am assuming these kind of bugs were never addressed by @prologic. :-(
Actually, @movq, I couldn't live without a bell in my prompt either. It's so neat in combination with
URxvt.urgentOnBell: true
in my _~/.Xdefaults_. Comes in handy every single day.My self-winding watch just shows me the time.
