Okay, so this Thursday (August 12th) is FeatureFreeze for Maverick. If any of this is going to make Maverick, we need to upload something ASAP.
While I would love to see this all automatic and automagic, I just don't think it's going to get any better than this right now for Maverick (given my other work items): alias alert='notify-send -i "$([ $? = 0 ] && echo gnome-terminal || echo error)" "$(history|tail -n1|sed -e '\''s/^\s*[0-9]\+\s*//;s/;\s*alert$//'\'')"' I'm happy adding this to Ubuntu's default bash .profile installed. Users who want to use this feature, will 'sudo apt-get install libnotify-bin' and then append the "; alert" onto the end of commands that they want to be alerted about. Ideally, this "feature" will be useful enough to people that we can get a full spec about the "best" way to implement this in Maverick+1 in a by-default, automatic, automagic manner. What do you think? :-Dustin -- [PATCH] Add desktop notification of completed commands https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/315932 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
