you want any kind of exit code? You may try logger tool...
ex:
updatedb || logger -t updatedb -- Process Terminated &
You will get a message at your log's (usualy /var/log/*) or you may
specify a socket to send packets to (see man logger). And you may also
change the logging priority (see man again). |
