[Bug 272749] Re: Set window manager "URGENT" hint on bell.
The related bug in the GNOME issue tracker seems to be stalled. I have just bumped the issue, but at the moment I am not expecting any answers. Do you consider adding the available patch to the Ubuntu package if the upstream maintainers won't respond? Not having this feature prevents me from using gnome-terminal as my default terminal emulator. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272749 Title: Set window manager "URGENT" hint on bell.

[Bug 272749] Re: Set window manager URGENT hint on bell.
Mikel, I have used the patches from your website: http://mikelward.com/software/gnome/flashing-terminal, and obviously missed the config schema stuff. Does this patch after all is able to just forward the terminal bell by setting the X client window's urgent property? Because that's all I want it to do. For monitoring activity etc I would use tmux then, but without gnome-terminal forwarding/handling the terminal bell from tmux, this does not work currently. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272749 Title: Set window manager URGENT hint on bell.

There should show up a package at https://launchpad.net/~blueyed/+archive/ppa/+sourcepub/4046208/+listing- archive-extra However, I do not see the options (and they are not in the patch as far as I can see). From your description it also does not look like it solves the single set the X client/window's urgent flag on the event of a terminal bell, as in `sleep 5; echo ^G` (try C-VC-G to get the real ^G (bell code)) and then tabbing away. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272749 Title: Set window manager URGENT hint on bell.

I've created a PPA at https://launchpad.net/~mikelward/+archive /flashing-gnome-terminal if anyone wants to try the patch on Maverick. You can do this by running: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mikelward/flashing-gnome-terminal sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install gnome-terminal gnome-terminal-data My aim is to get this integrated into Gnome, so if you find any problems, let me know, otherwise a comment in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=557593 asking to get this merged upstream could be helpful. Note that the PPA replaces the existing gnome-terminal package. I don't know if this is the right way or not. It might cause problems when the next official build comes out.

[Bug 272749] Re: Set window manager URGENT hint on bell.
The patch adds these options under the General tab: [ ] Bold the tab title when the terminal rings the bell [ ] ...even if I am working in that tab [ ] Flash the window's entry in the window list when the terminal rings the bell [ ] ...even if I am working in that window which ones you turn on will depend on how you want to use it. USE CASE 1 - Notify when command in background window is done Description: Enabling the Bold the tab title and Flash the window's entry, but not the ...even options provides a useful way of letting you know when a long-running command is finished. You can start a long-running command, go away and do something else, and then when the command is done, the terminal icon in the taskbar will flash. That way you don't have to keep Alt-Tabbing back to your terminal to check if the command is done. Settings: [*] Bold the tab title when the terminal rings the bell [ ] ...even if I am working in that tab [*] Flash the window's entry in the window list when the terminal rings the bell [ ] ...even if I am working in that window and put PS1=\\007$PS1 at the end of your ~/.bashrc. Demo: http://mikelward.com/software/gnome/terminal-bell-demo2.ogv USE CASE 2 - Better visual bell Description: Enabling all four options will give you a persistent bell that you must acknowledge, so you don't miss an important event if you were away from your computer. e.g. if somebody sends you a message using wall or the system writes a critical log message on the console, the terminal icon in the taskbar will flash until you Alt-Tab back to the window (or, if you're already in that window, you can stop it flashing by typing something). Settings: [*] Bold the tab title when the terminal rings the bell [*] ...even if I am working in that tab [*] Flash the window's entry in the window list when the terminal rings the bell [*] ...even if I am working in that window and if you added PS1=\\007$PS1 to your ~/.bashrc, for use case 1, you should remove it for use case 2.
