With me you can exclude the concept of thought. Never had, never will.
Therefore we need hard details on the man page. E.g., "make sure there is
at least a /bin/echo, or better yet sleep 0 after your command, not just a ':' 
or
echo, or else the shell might finish too quick to see the message".
"To always not see the message, kill(1) with -SIG..."

OK, I thought those messages had to do with job control.
