Dzen: pop-up windows from the command-line

I stumbled across an interesting and useful tool recently called dzen, a "general purpose messaging and notification program" written by Rob Manea. Basically, dzen provides an instant-on/instant-off pop-up terminal window, along with a multitude of options that allow you to run just about any command.

Dzen has not yet made it into the repositories of most mainstream distros. There are packages for Arch, Gentoo, Sourcemage, and CRUX Linux, and it is awaiting approval for Debian Unstable. If that list doesn't include your distro, you can install it yourself. Grab the tarball for the latest release from the project's home page, decompress it, and visit the README file in the resulting subdirectory to see the prerequisites and complete build instructions.

read more at the above link....... looks interesting......
