for simple and fast solution could be better add: %exec msg=`cat` nick=$(cat "${CONTACT_INFODIR}/info" | head -n 46 | tain -n1)" echo "$nick:$msg" >> /tmp/im-pending-msg into .centerim/external, and write yourself bash script watching for changes in /tmp/im-pending-msg and sending them to notify system for example (notify-send).. in my opinion it's better than patching sources in hurry. btw i'm using xmonad too. it's great.
