leave(1)                                                 leave(1)



NAME
     leave - reminds you when you have to leave

SYNOPSIS
     leave [hhmm]

ARGUMENTS
     hhmm Specifies the time of day.  Replace hh with the hour of
          the day (on a 12 or 24 hour clock) and mm with the
          minutes.  All times are converted to a 12 hour clock,
          and assumed to be in the next 12 hours.

DESCRIPTION
     leave waits until the specified time, then reminds you that
     you have to leave.  You are reminded 5 minutes and 1 minute
     before the actual time, at the time, and every minute
     thereafter.  When you log off, leave exits just before it
     would have printed the next message.

     If no argument is given, leave prompts with

        When do you have to leave?

     A reply of newline causes leave to exit, otherwise the reply
     is assumed to be a time.  This form is suitable for
     inclusion in a .login or .profile.

     The leave command ignores interrupts, quits, and terminates.
     It sends messages while other programs are running.  To get
     out of leave, you should either log off or use kill -9,
     giving its process ID.
