  It is possible to set an alarm, which will be shown in the alarm window. When
  the alarm expires, the phone wakes up if it is suspended, and zavai vibrates,
  turns on baclight, shows a big ACK button and flashes the AUX led for 30
- seconds.
+ seconds. It also plays some music.
 
  You can use the big button on screen or the AUX button to acknowledge the
  alarm and stop all the attention-seeking activities.
  
- When I'll implement some audio playing infrastructure, I'll implement playing
- an audio file as well.
+ If you want to change the alarm ringtone, you can set:
+ ringtone_alarm = "file:///some/where/file.ext"
+ in ~/.zavai/config
 
  Alarms (acknowledged or not) are logged in "~/.zavai/log-alarm/". Still
  missing, howerver, is a way to show that an alarm rang and noone noticed.

It now functions as a wake up alarm. It has worked reliably for a couple
of morning already, and now it gained music support.

There are actually two players inside zavai: one for music and one for
sounds, and the one for sounds pauses the music one when a sound is
played. It means that you can get an alarm that pauses the music, and
resumes it once the alarm is acked/canceled.

However, there is no interface for using the music player yet.


Ciao,

Enrico
