## usage of execNotify

You can pipe into `execNotify` but **not** from `execNotify`
 as the output gets modified.

## usage of notify

Send stdout via mail:

`echo "Hello world!" | notify`

Or with optional subject:

`echo "Hello world!" | notify "someSubject"`

Or without the pipe:

`notify "someSubject" "Hello" "World!" "What's" "up?"`

`notify "someSubject" "Hello World! What's up?"`
