- Remind.rexx by Don Nafis
- -------------------------
-
- Since NazCron detaches itself from the CLI, it is not a simple task to send
- reminders to a user, one of the more useful functions of a timer program of
- this type. To help remedy the situation, I've written this ARexx script
- that may be executed from NazCron to send reminders, as well as speak them
- in AmigaVoice. While the script works well from NazCron, it is not limited
- to NazCron use. You can execute it from any ARexx or Execute script
- (directly from the CLI if you wish).
-
- Usage:
- rx remind message
-
- where:
- message = any ascii text message that can fit across the screen.
-
- example:
- rx remind This is a reminder message.
-
-
- The syntax is the same for NazCron use as well. Here are some suggestions
- for using remind.rexx from NazCron:
-
- 0-5 18 * * 1-5 rx remind It's OK to use P C Pursuit and People Link.
- 0-5 19 * * 1-5 rx remind It's Ok to call BIX.
- 29-30 18 * * 1-5 rx remind Time for Cheers on Channel twenty nine.
-
-
- If you make improvements to this script, I'd love to hear about them.
