You are reminded 5 minutes and 1 minute before the actual time, at the time, and every minute thereafter. When you log off, leave exits just before it would have printed the next message. > It's a very hard command name to search for, but I don't think it's normally packaged for Linux. However it's basically a single file in the BSD tree which seems to compile and run okay under Linux, if you go to: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/usr.bin/leave/ You can open leave.c then select download. Remove or comment line 42: __FBSDID("$FreeBSD$"); Then compile and enjoy your somewhat annoying reminder utility. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
