Bug Description
Binary package hint: libnotify-bin
Ubuntu 8.04, libnotify-bin 0.4.4-3build1.
notify-send(1) is very useful but it doesn't tell me the notification ID that's been created, nor does it let me specify that to replace an earlier notification. See http://
I'd like to be able to use it something like
id=
sleep 60
notify-send --replace $id bar
This would be great for long-running shell scripts that are monitoring something.
