xwrited

display write and wall messages as desktop notifications

The xwrited utility displays write(1) and wall(1) messages as desktop notifications. A notification daemon compliant to the freedesktop.org Desktop Notification Specification draft needs to be running in order to display the notifications. This utility is useful e.g. to send (forward) broadcast (wall) messages to all users from cronjobs or system daemons. The xwrited daemon is automatically started for each new X session after the installation of this package.
