I put these two files in my home (~/notify) but now when I run the scripts I get the following error message: sh: line 1: /Users/tal/notif: Permission denied Any advice - Tal If you do not have a compiler, can you simply use the notify file or notify.c file that you posted.

Cheerio -Meckimac you do not have execute permission on the binary. run the following command in a terminal window:

Could you post the Applescript's uncompiled? I need to remove the iSync part but cant edit the script. You may want to .zip or .tar.gz the notif app, Safari appends .html to it and that may screw some people up. -KRS Juan- First off thanks! Could you post the Applescript’s uncompiled?

Try running 'notif' from the command line like this: - 'cd' into the directory where 'notif' is located, presumable your home-dir. - run it like this: ./notif if everything is fine, it will just run without giving any output - if it produces output, send it. Let me know how it goes. don’t ‘chmod’ the directory – chmod the executable. Try running ‘notif’ from the command line like this:

- ‘cd’ into the directory where ‘notif’ is located, presumable your home-dir.

if everything is fine, it will just run without giving any output – if it produces output, send it.

Let me know how it goes.
