Hi,
One of you guys probably knows this and uses it, I know it can be done,
I just forgot the command to do it:
I want to start a command like f.i. "updatedb &" and then have the OS
signal me when its done.
I remember it was something like:
"updatedb && msg 'updatedb is finished, go for it!' "
I then got a GUI screen showing the message.
If anyone remenbers the correct sequence, I'd be grateful.
Guus.
