Add echo something and sleep something into your script.
In roxterm –help -e “Execute remainder of command line inside the terminal. Must be the final option.”
$(roxterm -e sudo apt upgrade)So roxtrem terminal is closing when the upgrade is done. and I wanted to keep it open, I don’t know how add echo something and sleep will keep it open.
But as I said it doesn’t mater I replaced it with:
x-terminal-emulator -T "$title_terminal" -e /bin/bash -c "sudo apt upgrade && sleep 0.1 && yad --center --borders=5 --width=250 --text-align=center --button=gtk-ok:1 --title='Update Complete' --buttons-layout=center"- This reply was modified 2 months, 1 week ago by Lead Farmer.

Platform does not allow to write whole script, but you can add bin/bash yourself.
while : do echo ################### echo My update script echo ################# x-terminal-emulator -T "$title_terminal" -e /bin/bash -c "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && yad --center --borders=5 --width=250 --text-align=center --button=gtk-ok:1 --title='Update Complete' --buttons-layout=center" sleep 10 killall update-script clear done '"PS. replace killall update-script with the right script name.
Edit: Your script has no update feature, so add sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade

The script I post in #100535 is very simple and I set it to run once at 10:02 and 22:02 every day with crontab.
First it dues a “sudo apt update” and log the number of packages that need to be upgraded, if the number is “0” then exit the script.
If the number is more then 0, it will show a yad massage telling that a update is available and the number of packages that can be upgraded see See second image in post #99700.If the Install button is pressed the x-terminal-emulator will show and run “sudo apt upgrade && sleep 0.1 && yad…” it mean it will do the upgrade and show a yad massage that update in complete with ok button, when the button is pressed it will exit the script.

New version from the script.
#!/bin/bash yad --text="Would you like to check and install updates?" --title="UPDATER" if [ $? = 0 ]; then x-terminal-emulator -T "$title_terminal" -e /bin/bash -c "sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade && yad --center --borders=5 --width=250 --text-align=center --button=gtk-ok:1 --title='Update Complete' --buttons-layout=center" else exit 0 fi- This reply was modified 2 months ago by RJP.
Another change I add to the script is not to do “sudo apt update” if the CPU is under load, I’m using uptime command TO know what is the load average in the last minute is, and if it’s less then 1 do “sudo apt update”, and if there are packages that need upgraded do “sudo apt upgrade.
The reason I add it is because the “sudo apt update” take about 10 seconds at 50% CPU load on my PC, and it might effect other processes that I run like watching a YouTube video.
here the script
#!/bin/bash # # Set this bash scrip with crontab to check and install updates # export DISPLAY=:0.0 CPULOAD=$(uptime | grep -Po '(?<=load average: )[\d\.]+') # Set X and Y where the massage will show on your screen X=1366 Y=768 # Check if the CPU is not under load if (( $(echo "$CPULOAD < 1" | bc -l) )); then UPGRADS_NUM=$(sudo apt update | grep -P -o '^\d+') # If there are packages that needed to be upgraded show message if [[ $UPGRADS_NUM -gt 0 ]]; then yad \ --borders=20 \ --timeout=600 \ --title="Update Available" \ --text="You can update $UPGRADS_NUM packages" \ --geometry=200x120+$X+$Y \ --button="Install":2 \ --button="Cancel":1 \ --buttons-layout=center SELECT=$? # Exit or upgrade depend by the button press [[ $SELECT -eq 1 ]] && exit 0 if [[ $SELECT -eq 2 ]]; then x-terminal-emulator -T "$title_terminal" -e /bin/bash -c \ "sudo apt upgrade && sleep 1 && desktop-menu --write-out-global && sleep 0.1 && \ yad \ --center \ --borders=5 \ --width=250 \ --text-align=center \ --button=gtk-ok:1 \ --title='Update Complete' \ --buttons-layout=center" fi fi fi exit 0#############
Edit: I fixed the script, there was a problem with CPULOAD= line.- This reply was modified 2 months ago by Lead Farmer.
