Automatically Restart Program After Exit? [ SOLVED ]
I've been using tilda as a terminal emulator, and love it, but there's a slight problem. Pressing the hotkey for tilda doesn't spawn a new instance of it, it just makes pulls an existing instance onto the desktop. The problem is that I have a tick developed to use exit to close terminal emulators and this means that I have to re-run tilda from xterm to be able to use the hotkey again. I guess I could just make my Openbox autostart.sh include
(tilda && tilda && tilda && tilda) &but I'm wondering if any of you have a more elegant solution to make sure that tilda respawns if I run exit.

Save as tilda-start and run it instead:
#!/bin/sh
while true; do tilda; done

That's so simple I feel like an idiot. Thanks.
