Package: xfrisk
Version: 1.2-2
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi,
I wrote a small risk.c which is a launcher for frisk.
It is similar to the shell script provided with the package, but it
will clean up (kill the server and clients) after xfrisk is ended.
I used C instead of bash so I can be shure of the server pid when
killing it.
I think it could be a replacement for the current risk script.
The code is under the GPL, version 2 or later.
Cheers,
Alfredo
