Hi,
I have a file in which I write down the dates, hours etc of
future events and a simple script that sorts the lines
chronologically and prints out the output relevant to the next
few days. A line in my .bash_profile calls this script every time
I boot.
Since we bought a second computer, for my wife, I hardly ever
boot now. That is fine, but I've lost thereby my automatic
reminder.
I use to leave the graphic environement when I leave the
computer, to allow my wife to shut it down or reboot if need be.
nd restart X when I wish to use it.
I tried to call that script automatically at startx, by including
in .xinitrc the line:
xterm -cu -geometry 100x39+0+0 -bg cornsilk -sb -sl 500 -ms blue1 
-xrm 'xterm*pointerShape: dot' -title "Hebfont Xterm" -fn 
'-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-240-72-72-c-120-iso8859-8' -e
/home/avraham/scripts remind 7 | less &
.. but this does not work as expected.
What is the proper way to do it ?
Thanks, Avraham
