Thanks Charles. The above is indeed very helpful. I replaced the notify-send command with the below one as the notification popup wasn't visible to me when I was connected to Citrix desktop. Whereas the below command worked. zenity --info --text="$1 due in $2 minutes" --title "APPOINTMENT" --timeout 60 Regards, Amit
