I have been messing around with a program called 'remind' to provide
terminal reminders. I do this on cygwin because a) I have to run
windows and b) calendar doesn't have a package on cygwin and remind
does.
However, EVERY time I use it, it comes up with this nonsense:
You appear to be running Remind on a Microsoft system. I'd rather that
you didn't. Remind execution will continue momentarily.

It pauses for 5 seconds to do this.
Considering the man page is 24000 words (vs 4200 for grep), this person
had a little too much time on their hands to decide what a user-friendly
program is.
