This should work on linux (xdg-open) and OSX (open). If the program
is not in $PATH, it falls back to opening a browser window/tab with file:///
The only tricky bit is the javascript code, that handles clicking on the
link. This is to avoid unnecessary page refreshes. Until I added the
return false at the end, the <a>'s normal click event also fired, so two
file browsers opened. I have not checked portability extensively.
30 characters would mostly work, but 20 is safer due to some wider letters
like 'w'. Of course this is very heuristic based on filesize anyway.
(Bootstrap does a surprisingly bad job at dealing with overlong words
in the sidebar.)
Now an alert tracks files that have recently been added. As a large file
is added, it will have its own alert, that then combines with the tracker
when dones.
Also used for combining sanity checker alerts, as it could possibly want to
display a lot.
git annex assistant --autostart will start separate daemons in each
listed autostart repo
running the webapp outside any git-annex repo will open it on the
first listed autostart repo
This allows me to not build-depend on blaze-markup, which was causing
me some trouble when tring to build with cabal on debian. Seems debian
ships Text.Blaze.Renderer.String in two packages.
This prevents multiple runs of the assistant in the foreground, and lets
--stop stop foregrounded runs too.
The webapp firstrun case also now writes a pid file, once it's made the git
repo to put it in.
Unifying poll results, it's Annex in lowercase. :)
When cwd is HOME, use ~/Desktop/annex, unless there's no Desktop directory;
then use use ~/annex
If cwd is not $HOME, use cwd
