You mean display?
Notifications are what get passed to displays to be displayed, usually
on the screen. Non-visual displays such as MailMe “display” the
notification in some other way, such as by sending it as an email
message.

interpreter) is new to me.
That's called a shebang (for “shell bang”, since it's most useful for
shell scripts). The exec functions and system call handle that for
free: We simply run simple-mailer the same way we would run a compiled
machine-code program, and the OS reads the shebang line and turns
around and runs the script under that program for us.
