This is something that can trivially be solved by using a wrapper script that calls the original rsync binary and then plays the beep; so this won't be added to the rsync binary itself, sorry. E.g. put this in /usr/local/bin/rsync and ensure /usr/local/bin is first in your PATH envrionment variable: #!/bin/sh /usr/bin/rsync "$@" rc=$? aplay $HOME/mysound.wav exit $rc You could even play different sounds depending on the exit status of rsync...
