On that subject I dont use that stuff anymore, but use this on gnome for
erc notifications directed at me (so if erc buffers are hidden I get a
pop up when someone directs at msg directly at me). Its a lot nicer than
OSD imo and the code (primarily from Andy Stewart) could easily be adjusted
for your Org needs too:
,----
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-last '(0 0 0))
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-delay '(0 5 0))
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-cmd "notify-send")
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-icon "~/images/mail.png")
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-timeout 10000)
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-urgency "low")
| (defvar erc-nick-notify-category "im.received")
|
| (add-hook 'erc-text-matched-hook
| (lambda (match-type nickuserhost message)
| (cond
| ((eq match-type 'current-nick)
| (if (eq (string-match (concat (erc-current-nick) ":") message) 0) (shell-command (concat erc-nick-notify-cmd
| " -i " erc-nick-notify-icon
| " -t " (int-to-string
| erc-nick-notify-timeout)
| " -c " erc-nick-notify-category
| " '" message "'")))))))
