I tried playing with at command and I can't make it start when I want to.

gaim | at now +1 minute
- this starts gaim right away

echo 'gaim'|at now + 1 minute
- this does nothing

making a script called "start" and giving it +x and then:
at -f start now +1 minute
- does nothing.

I tried reading man and googling but I can't find an answer how to
start gaim every day at 8:15 under my username "pero" that I log in.

How is gaim supposed to know where to display its output (there might be many X sessions, or none)? And if it does find your session, why should it allow this program to open a new window?
