- BEWARE:
-
- Since sendopr uses echo and xmessage, the same restrictions and bugs are
- also found in sendop.
-
- Messages can't contain "?" or "!" because of their shell interpretation.
-
- The switches must always come before the message.
-
- The operator's Xresources should be configured to allow messages to be
- received, ie. "xhost +" should be set. In the operator's .xdefaults file,
- there should be a line similar to:
- Important.Geometry: 800x500+700+200
- to indicate the size and the location of the message window
-
- Sendopr assumes the operator's terminal is X-based. If the terminal
- does not support X11, then an email message will be sent to the operator
- and the sender will not get a confirmation of the message being received.
-
- Sendopr does not wrap long lines around to the next line. If a sentence
- is longer than the window size, the end of the line is cut off.
