[gentoo-user] Skype does not start again (in user mode)
Just yesterday I have installed skypeforlinux on my Gentoo box and found out that it does not start from user command line but does start from super user and moreover works quite well with that power. Does anybody have some idea how to make skypeforlinux to start from usual user command line beyond the general "something-wrong-with-permissions" wisdom? P.S. The user is in the video group.

Nah, bash works fine and is less verbose when interacting with system
utilities.
To meld it all together use a for loop:
#! /bin/bash
#Top line lets you save it as a file and run it if you want.
#Or you can run it a line at a time in your shell. Bash isn't picky.
IFS="
" #This bit tells it to only count new lines as new entries.
#It's only necessary if your file names have spaces in them.
#This assumes all your videos have proper file extensions. If
#not then you'll want to make use of the "file" utility to determine
#the type of your files and use grep to sort out which ones are
#videos and then run that list through the for loop instead.
for VIDEO in $(find . -xtype f -iname '*.mp4' -o -iname '*.avi'\
-o -iname '*.mkv'); do
#Things in $() get run and their stdout gets stuffed into the
#command line at that point. ${} is how you insert variable values.
echo "${VIDEO},$(exiftool -T -ImageSize '${VIDEO}')"
done
The bit with the backslashes at the end of the lines makes it not count
the newline as the end of a command so it will hopefully go through the
mail without getting too mangled. You should be able puzzle out how to
fix it if it does.
