How do I use (say) an mp3 file for the notification?

[xircon]

So I can, for example, hear the alarm if not near laptop?

also a new feature suggestion sand at 14:30 to run an alarm at 2:30pm etc.

There should be a sound with the notification by default, are you not getting it? That's a bug if so.

If you're asking about how to customise the sound, you can place a file called timer_sound.mp3 in ~/.local/share/sand-timer/. This is documented in sand --help.

The sound was too short, but the above works, I just need to restart the socket to kill the sound, thank you.
