Tnotify, a Terminal Notification

Hello guys, this is short post to tell you about tnotify the easiest, most attractive way to fire off notifications from your terminal. This application is available on ruby gem repository, you know why I write about tnotify? because I like the notification on any apps like notification on Android, Firefox OS, Firefox, Chrome. I don’t know why? but I love to see a notification it’s really pretty neat.

Ok let’s try this gem, first you need to install this gem by running this command

$ gem install tnotify

Ok, how to use it? simple just run tnotify after another command to send a notification when the command is finished,

$ command; tnotify

for example

$ ls; tnotify

The notification windows will appear on top-right of our desktop like this
