Howdy, Unfortunately tkremind is not an option for me. I am blind and use the Orca screen reader. TK is not accessible at all with it, so I have to do everything by hand.
I'm guessing I would add remind -k to cron, but in this case, how would I make it not speak the reminders that are on the same day but have either already passed, or are still in the future by more than 5 minutes? For example, it's 10:30AM on Monday, so I don't want the 9:25AM reminder. I also have a second one for 5:00PM, and I don't really need to know about it until 4:55PM. Thanks, Storm On Sun, Sep 17, 2023 at 10:04:23AM -0400, Remind Fans wrote:

It runs whenever I log in to my graphical desktop. If you click on "Options", there are a couple of relevant options: "Run command when popping up reminder:" "Feed popped-up reminder to command's standard input" I have a Perl script called "notify-reminder.pl" that reads standard input and speaks the reminder. You can make your script do whatever you want. If you prefer not to use tkremind, you can get a similar effect using Remind's "-k" option to run an external command whenever a reminder is issued. Regards, Dianne.
