Open a session

Create a new window
#win Test

Create an alarm that fires in 5 seconds
#alarm +5 {#say test123}

Click to select the Test window you created earlier. Wait 10 seconds
Notice the alarm doesn't ever fire in the first window

Click back into the first window, check which alarms are running
#alarm

The alarm you made is still counting down but is well into negative numbers.

That is really help for debugging!!
Thanks for the tips!!
Also thanks for report bug in cMUD forum for me.
