Mussed up alarm trigger
|
Anyone have any idea why this won't work?
#trigger {You start resting} {#alarm {+300} {wake}}
Whenever it fires, it makes a new trigger like:
#trigger {+300} {wake} |

That actually is correct. Alarms are a special type of trigger. If you select the options tab for it you see Alarm listed as its type.

Will the {+300} trigger disappear after it fires once?

The problem you're having involves the curly braces around the +300. They're not needed in an #alarm trigger (though I'm not sure if they're harmless or not). If you have a complex expression, you can use the parentheses or use a user-defined function.
EDIT: #TRIGGER triggers don't get deleted (if I recall correctly, temporary triggers use the #TEMP command)
