[TriLUG] Wake Up tool

Time to come back to the Oracle: ( not the company )


For quite some time, I have been thinking about ( needing ) something
that will remind me periodically to get up, stretch, have a drink of
water, see if the world still exists, whatever.

I tend to get single-minded about work, and time passes without my
noticing.

I know that I can set up a cron job that will fire every hour or two,
but what will it fire?

I happen to be generally in Debian-based environments, but that doesn't
necessarily have to be a determinant.


Suggestions?


Thanks,
Brian
