A comment on GNU poke 1.0. Parent comment
poke username -- path/to/command arg1 arg2
The command would fork, execute the child, wait for the child to finish, then send out its notification.
This would also allow flags like:
poke --on-failure @koolba -- path/to/foo
Or even handling the child taking too long:
poke --on-lagging 20m @koolba -- path/to/something-that-might-hang
