NFY(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual NFY(1)

nfy
a minimal and daemonless notification program for X

nfy [-v] str...

nfy creates a temporary notification popup window and displays all the arguments that were passed to it. Configuration is done by editing the 'config.h' file in the source code.

prints version to stdout and exits.

If the string is not surrounded in quotes, nfy will print one line for each word.

nfy has a non-blocking behaviour, meaning that commands coming after it can execute normally without them having to wait for nfy to finish first. This is especially helpful inside scripts.

nfy handles multiple notifications by queuing them using a lock file.

nfy handles only SIGALRM, SIGTERM and SIGINT. It receives a SIGALRM signal by default after the specified duration of the notification.

signal(3), alarm(3), fcntl(3), Xft(3), Xrandr(3)

Perhaps.
