Thanks Bob,

I'm not sure I follow you though.  The reminders file has been modified when I 
added a new reminder to it.
Is that what you mean?

Don't know for sure, but I suspect remind is looking at time of the file's
last modification or similar. If the file hasn't changed, no popup. Just a
guess. I faced a similar situation one time and added a "touch <filename>"
command so that Remind would see it as modified.

Hi Guys,

I had remind set up and working with both general reminders and time
specific reminders.
I'd get a popup at the start of the day with all the general reminders and
then another popup just before an event, reminding me to do something right
then.

Well,  I had to do a reintall and thought that I had everything back in
place.  It seems I don't.

My general reminders are working fine.

I can't get any timed reminders to popup.

If I run the commands listed below the first command works as it should.
 The second command does not.  Specifically when I hit return in the
terminal, I get nothing.  No command prompt, just blank.

Does anyone have an idea of what could cause this?

remind ~/Reminder-files/reminders-**general | gxmessage -buttons "OK:1"
-default "OK" -center -font "serif 16" -fg "#231" -bg yellow -wrap -title
"Don't Forget'" -file -


remind -z '-kgmessage -buttons "OK:1" -default "OK" -center -font "serif
16" -fg "#000" -bg "yellow" -wrap -title "HEY!" %s &' ~/Reminder-files/**
timedreminders
