Hi,
Whenever some job is sent to the background and it finishes, it displays
a message on the shell with the exit code. Something like this;
> [1]- Done emacs
> [2]+ Terminated gedit
I understand that I can get the exit code with $? but is there some way
I can get the associated message (Done/Terminated/Sementation Fault...)
with the exit code?
I want to use this in shell function/scripts to notify me whether any of
my submitted jobs succeeded or failed, and if they failed then with what
exit code.
Thanks for any insights.
