Unfortunately, both of them are X apps, wanting to connect to the X server. This isn't possible. I need a mechanism to pass a text message from a script to an X app running on some X server. That X app can then do the displaying. Basically, like running "nc -l -u 1234|zenity --text-info" and then doing something like "echo "Hello world" | nc -u -w 1 localhost 1234" from inside the script. I'm looking for a better way than using netcat... Cheers Steffen.
