Thanks, it warms the heart.

It's really just

a) Something I've always needed myself
b) A programming excercise

If someone else can benefit from it - all teh merrier.

I just blasted a build 32 to extras/devel with a timeout feature, could you test it? I'm not pusing it to extras/testing until it's gotten some love, coz it has some rather big changes.

Btw; "on cell tower change only" still doesn't work, just so you know.

It says ps: invalid option -- e

This is a good time to mention I have the updated busybox. PS is different, it only takes -w. I could have sworn it did this before, but I can't really test.

May I ask why you don't simply ps | grep "/python /opt/zap"? What does e do in the original?

I'm reaaly impressed by this application. Very nice UX/UI. Good work masterZap :)

Nothing, methinks.

The particular "ps | grep" line I use was found by the epic art of googling (a hairy "ps | grep | awk" thing that spits out a list of pid's I can consume and kill), and it seems to originate from some *nix variant where -e meant something. Original Maemo seems to ignore it, and the thing works fine without it, so I'm removing it.

Thanks for finding that!!

-e is same as -A, i.e. all processes. I think it already does that.

I found that ~ $ ps | grep xterm | awk -F " " '{print $1}' works well. (for xterm).

kill $(ps | grep xterm | awk -F " " '{print $1}')

seems to shoot all my terminal windows.

ETA:

Nevermind, my phone didn't boot any more, backup menu didn't work any more, I flashed it. Don't install the new busybox.

Ouch :(

Then again, I'm glad you didn't blame ZapLoc ;)

Normally I'd say I can tell who did what but I can't really shine after installing untested -devel software and rendering an N900 with multiboot and backupmenu unbootable (no small feat).

Did recover, though. Flashed root only, fired up backup, backed up comms and conversations, then installed BM and restored to previous glory, then restored conversations and call logs to date.

Then did a thorough cleaning. My stock flashed 600 MHz was faster than my OCd 900. Darn -devel. Must say, this has been an enlightening experience.

Among other things, location daemon now seems to exit :P

I have a weird bug. Maybe it's related to a missing font but I don't see the text inside the green boxes. For example the "Authorize" text when setting the services, or when I try to check-in to a facebook place. I only see the green buttons without anything inside.
