What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Consider you have zenity or kdialog installed 2. Run winetricks not from terminal (e.g. from "Run command" dialog) 3. Choose a package from the list that shows no GUI while installing (e. g. tahoma) 4. You cannot realize, when it is finished

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? I would really like a information window at the end saying something like "Winetricks has finished."

Please provide any additional information below. I need this, beacuse I call winetricks from my application http://wibom.sourceforge.net/

You could easily do this in your script, e.g.,: winetricks foo || ( zenity winetricks failed ; exit ) && zenity winetricks finished

though I suppose we could change the final echo to a warn...

Why not put up the dialog yourself from inside wibom when winetricks returns?

I would like to, problem is it won't work that easily. I call winetricks without an argument, to let user himself to choos a package from a zenity dialog. I can then show a message, when winetricks ends, but I cannot recognize, if it finished the installation, or user just closed / canceled the zenity window. Maybe if there is a differend exitcode when closing or canceling (e.g. 1), would be great.

Exiting with 1 would break a lot of other scripts.

Just grep for 'winetricks done', that's the last thing echo'ed.

Seems easy. Thank you :)

Marking wontfix.
