Nope, didn't know about growlnotify.

As for deleting this hint. It does not bother me. But I would hope it is replaced by a growlnotify hint. Because I know I searched MacOSXHints for Growl hints, and didn't find growlnotify.

As for the pain of writing my own script, it was fun. I develop Unix software for a living, and writing shell scripts (even big ones) is how I make difficult tasks easy.

And besides i learned a lot about Growl by writing my own script and by submitting my script to MacOSXHints, I learned about growlnotify. So it is a Win/Win situation for me.

And thanks to all the replies about growlnotify. At the very least, the posting of my hint has given more visibility to growlnotify.
