[SOLVED] How to hear a command?
by igadoter from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5RC7D)
Little joke of mine. Hope you like it. Just working on some sound for KTimer to wake me up, say this simple solution does not work
Code:echo -e "\a" I got idea to use aplay, simplest form is
Code:aplay -t raw 'some_file'but what file? So I choose this
Code:cat /usr/bin/ls | aplay -t rawso I can announce now a contest: which command sounds best. :D
Edit: I mark this as solved. KTimer is non-sense. So far it works only with konqueror. Bug was reported ktimer but as for me it still does not work with other applications than konqueror . What is so exceptional about konqueror ? :scratch:
