ConsoleFlash

A simple Windows command-line app to flash the console window, letting you know when a script finishes.

Examples

Test it out in the command line:

> sleep 3s && flash

A more practical place is at the end of a lengthy .bat file where you'd like to see the output when it finishes:

@ECHO OFF

initial-setup-code
some-really-long-executable

flash
pause
