Thank you Ahmed for your continued interest and help. I just committed a change that takes into account what you'd like to do though I opted to utilize Thamer's idea - namely, --- Thamer Mahmoud <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > ... but I don't think hard-coding "mplayer", or any other command, > is a good idea.

The new options will allow both of the above in the form of, ireminder -execr "cmd1 %m" -execs "cmd2 %s" which notes that the reminder will run 'cmd1' and will substitute the normal (ie. current) message string for '%m'. When the actual salat time triggers then 'cmd2' will be invoked while substituting '%s' for the current salat's name. So one can (you'll have to check the exact options/arguments), ireminder -execr 'notify-send "title" "%m"' -execs 'mplayer %s.mp3' or similar. Note, per the -help and the manpage, the -execR stands for Reminder while -execS stands for the Salat_now trigger. Salam. - Nadim __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
