I just switched from the Konversation IRC client to the terminal based IRSSI. I'm starting IRSSI on a remote machine using GNU screen + SSH. I do not get any sound notification on new messages, which means that I've to check out IRSSI once in a while for new messages.
That's not really productive, so I'm looking for an application / script that plays a sound (preferably /usr/share/sounds/KDE-Im-Irc-Event.ogg
and not the annoying beep) on my machine if there is any activity. It would be great if I can disable the notification for certain channels.
Or, if that's not possible, some sort of notification via libnotify
, thus making it available to GNOME and KDE.
