Keep your appointments on schedule with KAlarm

WAKE-UP CALL

Author(s): FRANK WIEDUWILT

KAlarm is a lean alternative calendar program. You can use this handy alarm clock as an easy-to-use replacement for cron.

The KAlarm [1] tool started life as part of the KDE PIM (Personal Information Management) package. It has now been dropped from the list of PIM components, however, its developer, David Jarvie, still distributes an advanced version of the program via his homepage. The current developer version is 1.9.0 beta, and it runs on KDE version 3.2 or newer. The current stable version is 1.4.4. Installation
