skypenotify

#!/bin/bash

#  Decription
#  -----------
#  Script to run append Skype messages in Notify OSD as shown on http://thexnews.com/uploads/notify.gif
#  Since `x-canonical-append` is broken in notify-send for example in Skype you will wait forever untill all messages are shown
#  This script makes new messages readable in same notification window
