In the past if I wanted to time a process in the darkroom or the kitchen I had a wind up timer, twist the dial to 27 minutes or whatever I wanted and a bell would ring when that time had elapsed. Certainly by today a Fedora computer should be able to do that basic task forme.

I would be happy typing a line inxterm that would run aplay some.wav at the end of the period. Can anyone tell me how to do that?

Until recently I have used xfce4-timer but that has never been as convenient as I would like and recently I have had problems with it.

Any suggestions will be appreciated,

Bob
