So u have given a SVN Checkout command or apt-get install command which will take unexpected time to end.
Here is a way to get notified when process ends. Just append notify-send “Complete”; to the command
For example
You want to execute
sudo apt-get install -big-software-
and want to get notified after installation.Then use following command
sudo apt-get install -big-software-; notify-send “installation complete”;
and you will be notified using ubuntu’s notification-daemon once the installation completes.
Cheers
