Hi,

In a sense it is already there: you can put any command as a player in a
config file.  BUT: at the moment you can declare only single player and
so there is no GUI way to select between them which I think you suggest?

But then to modes would be possible: an alarm (with the snooze/ack gui)
and the background command (possibly with an output to some logfile
and/or gui message if command fails).

At the moment I put quite low priority to ffalarms compared to the
real/rest-of life, so I can not give any promise when I could implement
this feature though I could find it useful myself to change phone
profile to silent/vibrate for some regular events.
