Title: Feature Request? Sounds when receiving payments? Ka-ching?
Post by: btcbot on August 14, 2013, 04:13:11 PM
It's Wednesday and I'm sitting here waiting for Friedcat's weekly dividend payout and I was thinking, it'd be nice if Electrum made a sound when incoming funds came in.   ;D

With optional configurable sounds, of course.

Notifcation option when receiving new transactions is already in 1.8.1 version. You'll need to have Growl installed on Mac (free version is 1.2.2 http://growl.info/downloads)

Cool... could you explain how I can turn it on.  I can't seem to find it in Preferences, nor in the Receive tab.  (I've looked all over).  Thanks!

If you are on a Mac, you'll need to have Growl installed (free version is 1.2.2 http://growl.info/downloads) and running. Then all incoming payments will appear as a Growl notification.

Sorry, I didn't realize it was only for Macs...  Thanks for the info.  PC user here.
