[9fans] [p9p] restart program on Acme Load
hi list, this is plan 9 port Acme question: how do i make Acme restart application upon Load? the only thing i care about is the correct working directory. i'm running `git gui' from Acme; the tag indicates it with `git' word. upon Dump, restart Acme, Load, the `git' word is recreated in tag, but the program is not started. -- dexen deVries [[[↓][→]]]
Re: [9fans] [p9p] restart program on Acme Load
I've been using Acme from p9p to interact with gnu-apl (sadly it has some quirks that make it kind of unusable...) and I am also interested in hearing of a way to do it (it was a mild pain to have to write ./apl --emacs each time I opened and closed acme or gnu-apl crashed.

Re: [9fans] [p9p] restart program on Acme Load
Hi! It seems dump file doesn't have application-specific info - it has to start with 'e' symbol. I have manually edited my acme.dump : /home/santucco /usr/local/plan9/font/fixed/anon/anon.14.font /lib/font/bit/lucm/unicode.9.font 0.000 67.8832117 w Newcol Kill Putall Dump Exit e 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Amail /home/santucco/ amail And Load command runs amail. But Dump command doesn't save the info back to acme.dump Maybe this is a bug in rowdump function?

Re: [9fans] [p9p] restart program on Acme Load
Maybe it makes a sence to set the directory via 'dumpdir'? Really, it seems this is only way to set command to be executed - according to the sources, 'e' is dumped if Window::dumpstr is filled, and Window::dumpstr is filled by 'dump' command.

You could put your long command line into a shell script that takes no arguments and run that shell script from acme's tag. sl
