XSAY(1)                    OpenBSD Reference Manual                    XSAY(1)

NAME
     xsay - a very small X event notififier

SYNOPSIS
     xsay [-d] [-D message] [-k] [-n] [-N] [message]

DESCRIPTION
     The xsay utility simply notifies the user by queuing up message, in a
     queue of messages displayed in a small "bubble" on the screen.

     The options are as follows:

     -d           Dequeue the current message.  This can also be accomplished
                  by clicking on the xsay bubble.

     -D message   Dequeue all messages with value message

     -k           Dequeue all messages.

     -n           Enter do-not-disturb mode.  New messages will not be dis-
                  played, but are queued up until the mode is exited.

     -N           Exit do-not-disturb mode.
