Bug Description
Personally, I'd like an alarm to sound not necessarily on a fixed timer or repeat but when an event is completed. For example, when my wget finishes. So I'd want something like:
wget -c http://
sound-alarm would probably be something like "echo 1 > /var/run/
I'll probably implement this this week, if you don't want to / don't want it merged into trunk (I understand).

Interesting use case, although I think it's slightly of of scope for Alarm Clock ;)
A simple script should do the trick though. You can use 'notify-send' to send the notification and aplay/mplayer/ gst-launch to play a sound.
