I have a python program which, from time to time, crashes with a number of different exceptions usually due to network issues. The only way to get it to work is to restart it. How would I write a shell script to run the process, continually check if any of the output says Error and if so end the process and restart the command (let's call it ./command.sh)?
It would be fine for this to be in any other language (python/perl etc).
My desktop has a fast wired connection and I would like to set up a sort of "wifi hotspot" that allows mobile devices to connect to my pc and share this fast connection. How would I go about doing this?
I have a Logitech MX400 Laser Mouse which has 5 buttons + 4 for vertical/horizontal scrolling. I would like it set up so instead of horizontal scrolling pressing right on the scrollwheel will send Ctrl+Tab and left will send Ctrl+Shift+Tab, which will allow me to cycle through tabs in browsers.
Also, it would be nice if I could remap the middle button to one of the ones on the side as it is really hard to press down.
Another bonus would be if I could write a script that allows me to define what buttons do what dependent on which window is currently active.
I have tried using xmodmap but I could only see how to rearrange buttons, not have them send key signals.
Thanks in advance.
Button Map (using xev):
Left 1
Middle 2
Right 3
ScrollUp 4
ScrollDown 5
ScrollLeft 6
ScrollRight 7
Backward 8
Forward 9
