ICE IO error?

[Marton Balazs]

Hi,

sorry for your funeral.

This script of mine is something like a startup script: I open a
terminal and run it whenever I settle to the machine and want to do my
usual stuff. It does some synchronization, then opens skype, pidgin,
firefox, alpine and this file in vim. This "tricky" thing was the way I
could find to open a file under vim in a separate terminal, the -e
"something done ; bash" part is to avoid closing this terminal when vim
exits. Of course I could do this by hand every time, open a terminal,
run my alias "vimkell", set the Hold Terminal Open menu, but the point
was to start all this from the script, thus make it as much automatic as
possible. Maybe the ICEauthority problem is the price I have to pay for
less clicking? :-)

Thanks,
Marton
