Yup. The script I use to start acme (in p9p) in my preferred
configuration (autoindent, 3 columns, specific fonts) uses my
'ensure_plumber' script:
#!/bin/sh
if 9p stat plumb > /dev/null 2>&1
then
exit
else
plumber
fi
to ensure that the plumber is running. This works nicely for me, as I
can exit and restart acme, and the plumber continues running. When I
log out of this linux system, however, t appears that the plumber is not
killed, and the next time I log in and start acme, the script sees that
the plumber is still running and doesn't start it. Unfortunately, that
running plumber doesn't seem to be work right because when I click on a
URL in acme it doesn't get opened in my web browser. I have to kill and
restart the plumber to get this to work.
I haven't been able to figure what is actually going wrong. Any hints
or suggestions would be gratefully accepted.
thanks,
