Add-on: [CS-FSLUG] Alarm for command-line processes?

This is the script that I use. Is there something (that I could add into it) 
to get "alarm" after it finishes:

(script is in single line)
for i in *jpg;do export i=`echo $i|perl -e '<> =~ /^(.+)\./; print "$1
\n";'`;echo "converting $i"; convert $i.jpg $i.pnm; rm $i.jpg; c44 $i.pnm 
$i.djvu; rm $i.pnm ; done

Blessings,
Jukka
