- You want "Denotify". This will intercept ALL notification mgr calls
- that request a dialog and circumvent the dialog, while recording the
- message, and allowing for sound and icon.

- You may call up the Denotify control panel at any time to see the dialog
- messages that have been recorded.

- To obtain:
-
- ftp ftp.msen.com
- cd /pub/vendor/ice
- get Denotify.hqx
