I love being surprised by learning something that my brain is ready
for but that I wasn't expecting or looking to learn. In the past I've
used a file mechanism when needing to lock out another instance. The
shell() and socket ideas are far enough outside my comfort zone that I
wouldn't have looked for a solution there. Thanks for the poke in the
brain.
