+"""Example alert tool for the Mercurial AutoSync extension.
+
+This alerter can be used on recent Linux desktop systems.
+
+It uses the freedesktop.org DBus notification interface to let a warning
+message pop up in the notification area.
+
+To test it, run
+
+ $ python xdg-notification.py test-repo "bla bla"
+
+To use it, set the autosync -> alert option in your global HGRC file or in an
+autosync'ed repository's HGRC file to /path/to/xdg-notification.py. Or put (and
+optionally rename) it somewhere in your path and just specify the tool's
+filename for the alert option.
