Optionally play a sound when a long running command completes #15749
Labels
Issue-Feature
Complex enough to require an in depth planning process and actual budgeted, scheduled work.

There's another issue on the tracker that's pretty much the same thing.
Description of the new feature/enhancement
Often developers need to run long running command line tasks such as builds, and would like to know when they've completed.
If the windows terminal could play a sound after completing a command which ran for longer than some configurable cutoff, such as a 60 seconds, it would provide a lot of value.
It's possible to create a shim program to use for this writing something like
myCommand1 || myPlaySoundShim
but that's too manual to actually be convenient in practice. A builtin for this would be much better.This could be as simple as playing the existing BEL sound.
