Hi,

I need a little push up,

I have shell script which opens up a xlib window, which happens in a loop.
I want each window to fade away after a certain period of time( 1 min for eg
).

My algorithm is as follow,

 for loop
     rsync a file from remote directory X
     Display the file for 1 min in a xlib window( sh displayFile.sh fileName
)
     close the xlib window(i.e kill displayFile.sh )
end loop

Any help could put me in right way.
