ClockChimes-0.2 Released

ClockChimes is a SlackBuild package for Slackware Linux. It creates a cron job that runs a sox based bash script. The script plays clock chime sound files based on the system time. This release plays Westminster chimes on the 15 minute, 30 minute, 45 minute and top of the hour.

Clock

The installation script modifies /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root file or creates the /var/spool/cron/crontabs/root file if it doesn't exist. If the user uninstalls clockchimes then the user should manually remove the root crontab entry.
