When you log off,

exits just before it would have
printed the next message.

The time of day is in the form
.Ar hhmm
where
.Ar hh
is a time in
hours (on a 12 or 24 hour clock), and
.Ar mm
in minutes.
In ambiguous cases, times are converted to a 12 hour clock,
and assumed to be in the next 12 hours.

If the time is preceded by
.Ql + ,
the alarm will go off in hours and minutes
from the current time.

have to leave?".

to exit,
