Title:
[Feature request] notify-send option to change the "notify-send" app
name that appears in all my notifications.
Status in libnotify package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
(I wasn't sure if feature requests counted as bug reports or
questions. My apologies if I guessed wrong. I also apologize if this
is the wrong place for a patch, but I couldn't find a repo to fork.)
I use notify-send in a number of shell scripts. I would like it to be
able to accurately report which script is sending the notification.
Instead I'm stuck with "notify-send" as the application responsible
for creating all the notifications.
I saw that the string "notify-send" appears exactly once in notify-
send.c. So I added a cli option, -l/--app-label, to change it.
Here's the patch:
```
128a129
> static char *app_label = NULL;
151a153,154
> {"app-label", 'l', 0, G_OPTION_ARG_STRING, &app_label,
> N_("Specifies the label shown in the notification
(default: notify-send)"), N_("APP_LABEL")},
223c226
< if (!notify_init ("notify-send"))
---
> if (!notify_init (app_label != NULL ? app_label : "notify-send"))
```
This is for libnotify-0.7.6 downloaded with apt-get source libnotify.
I figure the patch is trivial enough that the version probably doesn't
matter too much. I'd appreciate it if this functionality could make
it into libnotify, but I don't care if it's implemented with my patch
or some other method.
Thanks!
