Oblique Strategies displayed via libnotify. This is a modified copy
|

|

of [oblique_strategies](https://github.com/hgillane/oblique_strategies). Check
|

|
+
that project out if you prefer Growl notifications.

Dependencies
|
11
|
+
------------
|
12
|
+
|
13
|
+
You'll need to install `libnotify-dev` via apt and `libnotify` via gems:
|
14
|
+
|
15
|
+
sudo apt-get install libnotify-dev
|
16
|
+
gem install libnotify
|
17
|
+
|
18
|
+
You'll clearly need a ruby installation.
|
19
|
+
|
20
|
+
Usage
|
21
|
+
-----
|
22
|
+
|
23
|
+
As of the current release, either run the script from the command line
|
24
|
+
`ruby oblique_notify.rb` or move it to `~/bin`, make it executable, and run
|
25
|
+
it via synapse or gnome-do. I hope to have a swanky interface built for it
|
26
|
+
in the future.
