NAME¶
notify-send - a program to send desktop notifications
SYNOPSIS¶
notify-send [OPTIONS] {summary} [body]
DESCRIPTION¶
With notify-send you can send desktop notifications to the user via a notification daemon from the command line. These notifications can be used to inform the user about an event or display some form of information without getting in the user’s way.
OPTIONS¶
-?, --help
-a, --app-name=APP_NAME
-A, --action=[NAME=]Text...

Not all implementations use this parameter. GNOME Shell and Notify OSD always ignore it, while Plasma ignores it for notifications with the critical urgency level.
