Re: [Trisquel-users] notify-send not working

[trisquel]

Open the program you want to have display a desktop notification and edit  
"Preferences" to make sure that "show desktop notification" is selected.  
Search for "Customize Notify-OSD" in your favorite search-engine to learn how  
to change the size, shape, location, and  color of the popups, or how to  
create your own pop-up scripts with or w/o sounds and/or photos. Thankfully,  
they remind me to relax, play a tune, or go for a swim daily! You are  
correct... they are python and perl scripts that communicate with the desktop  
notification framework.
Keep tickling those piano keys & happy hacking! :)
