Whoops, it's:

 $ { ssh user_AT_host & } && xmessage connected

Btw, what "when" does is that it considers that the program is running
successfully if it didn't exit with error after X seconds.

Sounds like a little nice useful utility, even thoguh I don't like
that the commands have to be passed "quoted", as arguments just like
that. Not sure if there's a much better way to do it, though.
