Dink - Command Line Notifier

Dink is a simple command-line tool that provides notifications when your commands finish executing. It can play a sound, show a toast notification, or, on Windows, flash the taskbar icon. It's perfect for long-running commands or background tasks, so you don't have to constantly monitor your terminal.

Credits

We would like to thank Lycanthropy3301, the co-creator of this script, for their invaluable contributions to this project.

A special thanks also goes to Reema Sarkar for their help in building the binaries for this project.

Features

  • Sound notification: Play a custom sound when the command finishes executing.
  • Toast notification: Get a toast notification on command completion (works on both Windows and Linux).
  • Taskbar flash: On Windows, flash the command prompt icon on the taskbar to alert you (configurable flash count).
  • Text-to-Speech: Dink can speak a message after the command completes, for accessibility or convenience.
