KDE: sending files to a script from the browser

[Joel Hammer]

Well, the relentless march of progress. I modified the scripts to:

1. Allow any simple editor, not just vim, to work.
So know, kwrite and vim both work. I did this so my wife could be induced to
label the slides for me.
I also put in some pop up boxes acknowledging aborting the sequence and the
end of the sequence.

Remember, to use it, just start the Master.scr script, and then send the
jpg's to the Comment.scr. This script uses kwrite instead of vim, but vim is
a drop in replacement.


Master.scr

#!/bin/bash
abort()
{
rm junkwaiting
ps ax | grep Comment.scr | sed "s/^ *//" | cut -f1 -d " " > junkwaiting
[ -s junkwaiting ] && {
while read i
do
kill -9 $i
echo kill -9 $i
done < junkwaiting
}
xmessage "You have aborted further processing of this list" -center
k=0
}
#===========Start program======================
trap abort SIGUSR1 
# k=0 when Master is idling
# k=1 when Master is running through the Comments
k=0
j=0
while [ "$j" -le 1 ]
do
 ps ax | grep -v grep | grep vim || ps ax | grep -v grep | grep kwrite
  [ $? -eq 0 ] &&   echo "editor is running"  || {
    ps ax | grep Comment.scr  | sed "s/^ *//" | cut -f1 -d" " > junkwaiting
    read i < junkwaiting
		                                             }
    echo $i
		[ -z "$i" ] && [ "$k" -eq 1 ] && { 
		        xmessage "No more slides to edit" -center 
						k=0
						                         }
  	[ -z "$i" ] || { 
		k=1 
 		   kill -SIGCONT $i
			             }
sleep 2
done


The slave script, Comment.scr (for vim) or Comment.scr.kw (for Kwrite). 
This is Comment.scr.kw To use vim, just change kwrite to vim in this script.


#!/bin/bash
AbortAll()
{
ps ax | grep Master.scr | sed "s/^ *//" | cut -f1 -d" " >  junk$2
read i < junk$2
rm junk$2
kill -SIGUSR1 $i > junkmessages
}
editcomment()
