.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm
|
|
waits until the specified time (within the next 12 hours), then
|
|
reminds you that you have to leave by writing to the TTY that you
|
|
executed
|
|
.Nm
|
|
on.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
You are reminded 5 minutes and 1 minute before the actual
|
|
time, at the time, and every minute thereafter.
|
|
When you log off,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exits just before it would have
|
|
printed the next message.
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
.Bl -tag -width flag
|
|
.It Ar hhmm
|
|
The time of day is in the form
|
|
.Ar hhmm
|
|
where
|
|
.Ar hh
|
|
is a time in
|
|
hours (on a 12 or 24 hour clock), and
|
|
.Ar mm
|
|
are minutes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
However, all times are converted to a 12 hour clock, and assumed to
|
|
be in the next 12 hours.
|
|
An attempt to set an alarm for farther into the future will be truncated
|
|
to within the next 12 hours.
|
|
.It Cm \&+
|
|
If the time is preceded by
|
|
.Ql Cm \&+ ,
|
|
the alarm will go off in hours and minutes
|
|
from the current time.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no argument is given,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
prompts with "When do you have to leave?"
|
|
A reply of newline causes
|
|
.Nm
|
|
to exit,
|
|
otherwise the reply is assumed to be a time.
|
|
This form is suitable for inclusion in a
|
|

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command appeared in
|
|
.Bx 3.0 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
In the modern age with
|
|
.Xr X 1
|
|
and window multiplexing programs like
|
|
.Xr window 1
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr screen 1 ,
|
|
the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
command's reminders and admonitions might not be seen if the user
|
|
has the window where
|
|
.Nm
|
|
was started minimized or obscured.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This all begs for a more general user notifications system to be implemented.
