XPRA_SIGNAL_LISTENER(1)
π XPRA_SIGNAL_LISTENER π
okay bestie, welcome to the xpra_signal_listener(1) page β a General Commands Manual moment, and honestly it's a tiny little icon of a page, so let's get into it β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
xpra_signal_listener β a fake process utility that xpra uses to receive signals π«Ά
π SYNOPSIS π
xpra_signal_listener
no flags, no args, no drama. she just exists. π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so here's the tea, bestie π β xpra_signal_listener is what xpra spins up to make sure that all the NET_WM_PID of remote windows have a valid corresponding NET_WM_PID on the client windows. like, the vibes have to match up on both sides, y'know? no cap. β¨
this process is literally just a placeholder π₯Ή she sits there, she waits for a signal, and then she exits. that's the whole job. main character energy of doing absolutely nothing but looking cute while doing it. π
and the exit code? not random, bestie β the exit code is the value of the signal plus 128. so, for example: on SIGINT the exit code is 130. math is math, and she's serving accuracy π
lowkey the whole personality of this process is "wait patiently, then leave with a number". and honestly? valid. π«Ά
π SEE ALSO π
and that's the whole page, periodt πβ¨ no options to memorise, no warnings, no bugs β just a tiny placeholder doing her little job.
this was xpra_signal_listener(1) from the General Commands Manual, and the footer just says XPRA_SIGNAL_LISTENER(1) right back at ya β no extra version or date tea in there, she keeps it mysterious ππ
bye bestie, go signal something π₯π
