Hi Rodrigo,

I find your recent idea[0] to refresh the page on local file changes
interesting, and it could be a quite useful feature.

[0] https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/issues/255

I implemented this on the following PR:

https://github.com/dillo-browser/dillo/pull/290

It reloads the focused tabs on all windows of the given Dillo process when a SIGUSR1 signal arrives.

Example to reload a local file test.html:

All Dillo processes:

  echo test.html | entr pkill -SIGUSR1 dillo

Only one with pid 1234:

  echo test.html | entr kill -SIGUSR1 1234

I mostly wanted to quickly reload the changes when I edit an HTML page, but this can also be used to monitor a remote page over time, like:

  $ dillo https://twtxt.envs.net/api/plain/tweets &
  $ while [ 1 ]; do sleep 10; pkill -SIGUSR1 dillo; done &

See: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=330705

Could you test it on OpenBSD, I hope the signaling part continues to work fine there.

Best,
Rodrigo.
