|
|
|
|
Run custom scripts on notifications matching a specified pattern. Have espeak
|
|
read out your notifications, or play a song when your significant other signs on
|
|
in pidgin!
|
|
|
|
## 📋 Rules
|
|
|
|
Change the look or behavior of notifications matching a specified pattern. You
|
|
could use this to change the color of message notifications from your favorite
|
|
jabber buddies, or to prevent important work email notifications from
|
|
disappearing until you manually dismiss them.
|
|
|
|
## ⏸️ Pause
|
|
|
|
If you want to take a break and not receive any notifications for a while, just
|
|
pause dunst. All notifications will be saved for you to catch up
|
|
later.
|
|
|
|
## 🕘 History
|
|
|
|
Catch an unread notification disappearing from the corner of your eye? Just tap
|
|
a keyboard shortcut to replay the last notification, or continue tapping to see
|
|
your notification history.

# Documentation
|
|
|
|
Most documentation can be found in dunst's man pages. In
|
|
[**dunst(1)**](docs/dunst.1.pod) contains some general instructions on how
|
|
to run dunst and in
|
|
[**dunst(5)**](docs/dunst.5.pod) all of dunst's configuration options are
|
|
explained.
|
|
|
|
On the dunst [wiki][wiki] you can find guides and installation instructions and
|
|
on the dunst [website][website] there is a [FAQ][FAQ] with common issues.
