            Bug ID: 420053
           Summary: Feature request: Monitor session for process to
                    complete
           Product: konsole
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: monitoring
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: wwestrop at hotmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Konsole already has options to "Monitor for Silence" and "Monitor for Activity"
on the View menu

Say I have a long-running script, which is sometimes spammy, and sometimes
silent for a long time (eg downloading lots of data). In this case, I'd like to
just put it into the background, and have Konsole ping me when the whole thing
is done.

Because of the script's sometimes-quiet-sometimes-not nature, both of the
existing options will give me multiple spurious notifications before the script
has finished entirely.



I have in fact been hacking on such a thing (not finished), link here:

Would people find this useful?
I'm a complete noob to Qt and KDE development in general, so don't know about
the standards, testing process, i18n, etc. Any advice on where I should go to
discuss this?
