ok, i hate it when i run tin, and then forget i have it in the background somewhere and run it again.
i want to replace 'tin' with a shell script or alias that will test for a lock file (and call me a moron if it exists), make a lock file, run tin, and then delete the lock file... anyone got a good quick example they can cut and paste? (i could figure it all out in bash myself, but figured there might be caveats due to job control stuff, like ^Z suspension) thx! -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hire me! http://newbreedsoftware.com/bill/ http://newbreedsoftware.com/bill/resume/ _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
