ireminder [-ipraytime path] [-skip event_name] [-reminder minutes] [-inplace] [-execr cmd] [-execs cmd] [-help]

The ireminder script is written in perl and is meant to be a simplistic wrapper to call and process the 'ipraytime' application. ireminder is used to remind the user via audio indicators of an impending Islamic prayer event.

Some of the options within ireminder allow for list inputs, those are meant to be a quoted series of text/numbers.
