The client side seems simple enough: --- /src/rxvtc.C +++ b/src/rxvtc.C @@ -133,6 +133,11 @@ main (int argc, const char *const *argv) exit (STATUS_FAILURE); } } + else if (!strcmp (tok, "RUNNING")) + { + // restart the loop in anticipation of END + continue; + } else if (!strcmp (tok, "END")) { int success; Now the daemon just needs to 1a. parse argv and set wait=true if -wait (or --wait-for-exit) is given 1b. alternatively, set wait=true if argv[0] is 'x-terminal-emulator' 2. if wait==true, send 'RUNNING' instead of 'END' after terminal has been started. 3. monitor the window, and send 'END' to the client when it's closed. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
