This is a port of the popular undistract-me for bash to eshell in emacs.
eshell-undistract-me will send a notification, and optionally play a sound, when a command you have run in eshell has taken longer than a time (default 10s) and have switched windows. It is designed so you can be reminded when a long-running command finishes. No longer do you suffer from a long-running command finishing after switching tasks any you only finding out minutes later.
Add the eshell-undistract-me.el into you emacs load path. Then add the following to you config.
;; Hooks needed to get eshell-undistract-me working
(add-hook 'eshell-pre-command-hook #'eshell-undistract-me-pre-command)
(add-hook 'eshell-before-prompt-hook #'eshell-undistract-me-before-prompt)
;; To change the time needed before a notification is sent (in seconds)
;; (default: 10):
(setq eshell-undistract-me-long-running-command-timeout 10)
;; To play a sound as well when a notification is sent (default: nil):
(setq eshell-undistract-me-play-sound t)
;; To change the tool used to play a sound (defaut: paplay)
(setq eshell-undistract-me-sound-command "paplay")
;; The default sound played is located at
;; /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/complete.oga
;; To change the sound path:
(setq eshell-undistract-me-sound-path "/path/to/new/sound")
