ALRT - Display Alert Message

Send

You’ll post four lines of text which will result in a popup. The title (“Be Advised”) and button (“Understood”) cannot be changed.:

line1 = "Hello!"
line2 = "Something really surprising happened, and I wanted to send it \
         to you via UDP so you can see it. Really long lines wrap \
         automatically."
line3 = "Note:\nAn embedded newline results in a line break in the output."
line4 = "There is a paragraph break between lines."
msg = struct.pack('<4sx240s240s240s240s', b'ALRT',
                  line1.encode('utf-8'),
                  line2.encode('utf-8'),
                  line3.encode('utf-8'),
                  line4.encode('utf-8'))
sock.sendto(msg, (beacon['ip'], beacon['port']))

The popup is a fixed width, long lines are wrapped automatically. If the height of the text exceeds the height of the popup, the popup will automatically include a scrollbar.
