The variable `notify' is a string instead of a boolean (NULL corresponds to false). When a job is done, the string you set it to is printed. So set notify = '^G' will do what you want. I don't think this would be hard to add yourself if you have the source for the csh. -- ...ihnp4!tellab1!steve Steve Harpster Tellabs, Inc.
