I'm trying to get the at command to bring up xmms and then start playing
a playlist.  Looking at the at man page, I know that I have the syntax
correct for that command.  So then I look at the man page for xmms. I
note that there are flags for what session that you want to use so I
took note and tried to get this to work. I created a file called music
and added the line /usr/X11R6/bin/xmms -p --session=0.0 and then put it
into a at job like this. at +10min < music. When the 10 min was up, xmms
did not come up.  Is there something obvious that I did wrong?  If you
just give at a time, you can give it commands but I cannot get out of at
without killing it.  Anyone know how?  
Thanks!
