Examples
Just put noti
at the beginning or end of your regular commands. For more details, check the docs.
Display a notification when tar
finishes compressing files.
noti tar -cjf music.tar.bz2 Music/
Add noti
after a command, in case you forgot at the beginning.
clang foo.c -Wall -lm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lX11 -o bizz; noti
If you already started a command but forgot to use noti
, then you can do this to get notified when that process' PID disappears.
noti --pwatch 1234
You can also press ctrl+z
after you started a process. This will temporarily suspend the process, but you can resume it with noti
.
$ dd if=/dev/zero of=foo bs=1M count=2000
^Z
zsh: suspended dd if=/dev/zero of=foo bs=1M count=2000
$ fg; noti
[1] + continued dd if=/dev/zero of=foo bs=1M count=2000
