Hi all This is not an urgent problem, but I'm curious about what's going on. If I run this:
remind -q -g -b1 ~/.reminders | gxmessage -buttons "OK:0" -default "OK" -title "today's reminders" -file - from cron, it works fine. However, if I run the same thing as a timed reminder from within my .reminders file, it works a little _too_ well, spewing many many (many!) copies of the same message onto my screen. It's the correct message; I just want to tell it enough is enough! :-) - What have I done wrong? - Can I correct this line to work in my .reminders (or calling a separate script from the .reminders or whatever), or do I need to go back to cron? (I went away from cron just because I never use it for anything else, and I figured Remind should be able to handle this easily when given the correct command.) I didn't want to set this as an un-timed reminder that shows up at midnight, because I'm often still up at midnight - I'd rather have it run at 05:00 or 06:00, so that it's waiting for me in the morning when I get there.
