TkRemind invokes Remind in one of these ways (simplified a bit):
remind -p -l ... This is to draw a calendar. RUNs are ignored.
remind -z0 ... This is for background reminders. Only those with TIMEs
will be triggered.
remind -g -q -r ... This is for the daily reminder display on startup. RUNs
are specifically disabled, with the "-r" option.
If you want your RUN command to actually do anything, you need to invoke
remind yourself. A non-timed reminder will trigger each time you run remind
if its trigger date is satisfied. I believe a timed reminder with a RUN
clause will be triggered by the "remind -z0 ..." daemon.
