Hello again,

Another feature I wish to request is the ability to set bells at several user-defined timepoints during the meditation period. In some types of meditation, such as zazen for example, the sitting is interrupted at regular intervals in order to take a few-minute walk. The current interval feature alone is not enough to support this, as the end of the walking period is typically signalled by another bell. Hence, the schedule for striking bells may look something like this (in minutes): 00 (first sitting) - 25 (first walk) - 30 (second sitting) - 55 (second walk) - 60 (third sitting) - 85 (end).

As you can see, it cannot be solved by simply adding another, overlapping bell interval, as the time intervals between the beginning and the first walk (25 minutes), and the first walk and the second walk (30 minutes) would be different.

Would something like :

-c, --custom-bells 0,25,30,55,60,85

Be good enough?

Absolutely, that's what I had in mind myself. :)
