Command Monitor
This is a command line utility for reporting the status of a long-running job.
This project started because the author got tired of building c++ code and
having to choose between staring at a screen while waiting for the job to end
or starting another task only to come back much after a job had ended. With
this utility, instead of typing:
$ make
you can instead type:
$ cmd_monitor.py "make"
When the make job ends, a status notification will show up on your desktop
along with a sound indicating whether the job was successful or not.


Installation

$ pip install cmd_monitor

Additionally, the default sounds are provided on Ubuntu with the
ubuntu-sounds package. Pulseaudio is used to play the sounds (from the package pulseaudio-utils).
If you are on another distribution, you can override
the default sounds with the following flags:
$ cmd_monitor --success_sound /my/success/sound --fail_sound /my/fail/sound
Or to have no sound at all:
$ cmd_monitor --success_sound "" --fail_sound ""
