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!
