Galarm is a tool to popup an alarm message (using libnotify) after a given time.
The program is intended to run on all Unices, but is tested on GNU/Linux only.
The license is GPL-2.

Description

The main design goal was to create a very small tool which doesn't require any configuration.
Instead you just start the tool with as few characters as possible.

popup after 5 minutes:

# ga 5

or with a message:

# ga 5m tea is ready

or at a fixed time:

# ga @12 don't forget the call

You can also pause/resume or cancel the alarms.
