Play Warcraft 2 "work complete" sound with shell alias `beep`
Raw
gistfile1.txt
#!/bin/bash
#
# Adds a shell alias `beep` that plays the "Work Complete!" sound from Warcraft 2 on OSX via afplay.
#
# Just add `&& beep` to the end of any long-running CLI process. Useful if you aren't a Growl user.
#
# rake db:reset && rake db:test:prepare && beep # => You'll hear "Work Complete!" when it's done.
