Notification from Background jobs

Reposting, as it got lost during the database backup. Smilie

Via a shell script a spawn 3 background jobs namely a, b & c.

These will take different times to complete.

I want to print a different message on completion of each.

How can i find out when each one has completed independently.

Thanks

       backup kill command to terminate them as necessary.

OPTIONS
