User:Pete/rem.plist

[edit] Here is how I start that useful Remind+Growlnotify combination, automatically at login.

Two files are needed.

1) a text file of the shell command (for this example, I put this in ~/bin, and called it "launchremind") replace "pete" with your username, of course:

nohup remind -z -k'/usr/local/bin/growlnotify -s %s &' /Users/pete/.reminders &

2) the launchd script itself (put this in ~/Library/LaunchAgents. If that directory doesn't exist, create it.)
