externalpipe-signal

Description

Run an externalpipe command upon receiving the SIGUSR1 signal. This is helpful for supporting externalpipe scripts which work across multiple surf instances. With the example script you can access a dmenu populated with the contents of all tags contents of all open surf windows for directly pasting.

Apply this patch on top of surf externalpipe.

Example

Add the example script to your $PATH:

Add to your config.h: 

    static char *externalpipe_sigusr1[] = {"/bin/sh", "-c", "externalpipe_buffer.sh surf_strings_read"};

Add to your WM as a hotkey: 

    externalpipe_buffer.sh dmenu_type
