Still the same behaviour
I think it is something to do with splitting the event line up into parts...
I put an echo at the start of the while loop that reads each event line:
# Open /event for reading
wmiir read /event |
# Read the events line by line
while read line; do
echo reading line from event: $line
# Split the line into words, store in $@
set -- $line
event=$1; shift
line = "$(echo $line | sed 's/^[^ ]* //' | tr -d '\n')"
And the output after one press of Mod4-p is:
reading line from event: Key Mod4-p
and then after a second press the menu is displayed and the following is
displayed:
Key Mod4-p
I don't even know where this second echo is coming from, hmm...
