Being tired of keeping my local copy of Grid with GridAlert, I finally took the time to convert it to an addon separate (but dependant) from Grid.
GridAlert adds sound and text notifications to change in status. It comes with 2 modules, one for aggro and one for dispell. Alerts and triggers are fully configurable.
Is there a way to disable the aggro sound? I only have Grid shown for raids, but while soloing yesterday, I kept getting the "aggro" sound. I didn't see a way to disable it, but maybe I just didn't look right. :)

Latest GridAlert (r44875) does no longer show up in Grids configuration menu.
Also there is a longtime bug with the messages concerning alerts.
First of all, the alerts show up twice in the menu.
Then, the messages for alerts only show up when entered in the right menu (don't remember which, because it is broken ATM :D).
Lastly, the messages are not saved between relogs, no matter in which menu I enter them.

Give r44895 a try.

Please note that the modules create alerts (i.e. the Aggro module create the GridAlertAggro alert). You should change the option of the modules (that appear in the top GridAlert options level), not the alert options if you want them to be saved from session to session.
Other than that, it should mostly work. Note also that SinkLib is still young, so it might break from time to time.
Okay, seems like I'm the only one posting here. So for my hattrick I have a suggestion.
I'd like to have an option for triggers to only fire while in party/raid.
I get spammed with aggro triggers while soloing which is kinda pointless and annoying to no extent :D
Is there a way to tell which unit the event has fired for? I've set up an alert for when a raid member dies. I'd like the message displayed to include who died. Is this possible or am I better off just sticking to audio warnings?
I recently completely reset all of my addon profiles while trying to diagnose a zoning problem and am now getting errors any time I try to change or copy Grid profiles (both through console and Waterfall) if I have GridAlert enabled.

I didn't how to make this, and was tired too to update the *.lua after each update!
remove "modules\aggro.lua" from the TOC.

Other than that I really love this addon :>
Should be:
Then it'll work again.

But as you stated, Sink support is a bit buggy :D
I selected Parrot as output but it did not select it and I cannot select the scrolling area.
Anyway, glad to see this updated.
How can I change the output area now?
Currently everything is shown in ChatFrame1 :\

Easy : only enable Grid in party or raid. GridAlert shouldn't trigger if the Grid frame isn't shown. This is the intended behavior.
I guess I need to manually en-/disable it instead?
No. But status get updated even if the frame is hidden, which surprises me. I'll take a look at it.
It should, yeah. but doesn't... I'll fix it ASAP. Thanks for your report.
It works great, Jerry! Thank you so much for adding it. =)
