Description

A handy command-line tool that allows you to send user notifications on Mac OS X 10.8 and higher. These notifications will appear in the Notification Center with the application's own icon. Unfortunately, there is currently no option to use a custom icon for these notifications. If you want to use your own icon, you will need to include a version of terminal-notifier that has your icon embedded in it. This tool is great for keeping users updated with important information through notifications.

You could have downloaded terminal-notifier 2.0.0 for Mac from our application library for free. This free application can be installed on Mac OS X 10.8 or later. The most popular versions among the application users are 1.6, 1.5 and 1.4.

Commonly, this application's installer has the following filename: terminal-notifier_1.4.2.zip. The bundle identifier for this application is nl.superalloy.oss.terminal-notifier. This free Mac application was originally developed by alloy. Terminal-notifier for Mac lies within Business Tools, more precisely Project Management.

From the developer:

Terminal-notifier is a command-line tool to send Mac OS X User Notifications, which are available in Mac OS X 10.8. The Notification Center always uses the application’s own icon, there’s currently no way to specify a custom icon for a notification. The only way to use this tool with your own icon is to include a build of terminal-notifier with your icon instead.
