Sound of turn end
« on: September 02, 2011, 05:09:54 AM »
Is there a option to get some sound when "autoturn" has ended? Sometimes i have long turns, sometimes short. So i take a look at the browser or something, and lose time because I'm unaware that turn has ended :(

I just put a ctrl-G into the type-ahead buffer.  Then the bell rings when the previous command finishes and the ctrl-G execu.... oh wait - that was on Vaxes (Before Windows)  :)

Never Mind.

^-------- Useless post is useless.

But actually, this would be a great idea.  Along with the option to change what events stop time.

My 1st contract programming job was for Digital Equipment Corporation. Not VMS though, it was C++/Windows 3.1 :)
