For each received message a new +instance of 'cmd' is created. + + +OPTIONS +------- + +*-X*:: + Quit when the current X session terminates. By default *wall-notify* keeps + running. This option is intended for `~/.xinitrc` to prevent stale + *wall-notify* processes when the user logs out. Requires a running X + server. + +*-m*:: + Receive messages from all users. Works similar to *mesg y*. By default + only messages from root are allowed. Be careful when using this option, it + might be abused by local users to send fake messages. + + +AUTHORS +------- + +Written by Simon Ruderich . + + +COPYRIGHT +--------- + +Copyright \(C) 2014 Simon Ruderich.
