That's clever. mozilla is a wrapper (shell script) which tests if
mozilla is already running, if it is, it doesn't start a new instance,
It sends a command to the existing mozllia to open a new window. 
The mozilla test appears to work/use X to determine if it's already
running.


You could run /usr/lib/mozilla/mozilla-bin instead, but the mozilla
wrapper does other things which may or may no matter :)

Or you could add an option to the mozilla wrapper to start a new
instance. But that makes upgrades a pain.

I love log watchers.
