	When I used to use X10, I used an xclock with an alarm feature; I
think it was a version Ed Moy built, based on Tony Della Ferra's (sp?)
original xclock.  I ported it to X11 a while ago, and it seems to work
pretty well.  If anyone wants a copy, just let me know.  


	Also, many thanks to all the folks who sent me xfish sources.  I've
found and fixed some bugs that made xfish fail to run correctly on some
servers.  Again, if anyone wants a copy, send e-mail.
