Hi,

the thing is, I'm not sure how would you differentiate between
"command" and random line typed for example in vim.

As mentioned in other mail, there is pretty good way to get command you
are running into window title already.

Alternatively you could try to script some shell function that gets run
before command is executed and after it is done. You could use $WINDOW
and $STY variables to manage them into some kind of temporary database
file.

And then parse this file to display results.
