NAME

       zleave - notify you via Zephyr when you have to leave

SYNOPSIS

       zleave [ [+]hhmm [ -m Reminder Message ] ]
       zleave can[cel]

DESCRIPTION

       Zleave  waits  until  the  specified  time,  then reminds you that you have to leave, using the Zephyr(1)
       Notification Service.  You are reminded 5 minutes and 1 minute before the actual time, at the  time,  and
       every minute thereafter.  When you log off, zleave exits just before it would have sent the next message.

       The  time  of  day is in the form hhmm where hh is a time in hours (on a 12 or 24 hour clock).  All times
       are converted to a 12 hour clock, and assumed to be in the next 12 hours.

       If the time is preceded by `+', the alarm will go off in hours and minutes from the current time.

       If no argument is given, zleave prompts with "When do you have to leave?".  A  reply  of  newline  causes
       zleave  to  exit,  otherwise the reply is assumed to be a time.  This form is suitable for inclusion in a
       .login or .profile.

       The cancel  option  cancels  the  currently  running  zleave.   If  another  zleave  is  running,  it  is
       automatically  killed  when  a  new  time  to  leave  is  set.   The  process  id  is  stored in the file
       /tmp/zleave.uid, where uid is the user's UNIX uid.

       If the -m argument is specified, the next argument is  appended  to  the  standard  message  (a  sentence
       describing  how  much  time  remains until the appointed hour) sent at appropriate times.  If you want to
       append a multiple-word message, you normally must quote it with double quotes (") (This is necessary  for
       users of csh(1) and sh(1).)

       Zleave  automatically subscribes you to Zephyr class "MESSAGE", instance "LEAVE".  You do not have to add
       anything to your default subscriptions file (see zctl(1)).  The reminder  message  is  displayed  by  the
       WindowGram client (usually zwgc(1)).

       If Zephyr is unavailable, zleave acts essentially like leave(1).

       Zleave  ignores  SIGINT,  SIGQUIT,  and  SIGTERM.   To get rid of it you should either log off or use the
       cancel option.
