Some commands allowing the latest Info*Usurpa to be automatically downloaded on your KDE or Gnome desktop.
The automatic download is divided in three parts:
Being root, copy the code, or download the usurpa.sh script, and store it as /usr/local/bin/usurpa.sh. Remember to make it executable ( chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/usurpa.sh ).
#!/bin/sh cd $HOME/Desktop ; wget -N http://usurpa.squat.net/usurpa.pdf
Always being root, add a line to your /etc/crontab file, changing USER with the name of the name of your user !!!. The resulting /etc/crontab file will look similar to this:
# /etc/crontab: system-wide crontab # Unlike any other crontab you don't have to run the `crontab' # command to install the new version when you edit this file # and files in /etc/cron.d. These files also have username fields, # that none of the other crontabs do. SHELL=/bin/sh PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin # m h dom mon dow user command 17 * * * * root cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.hourly 25 6 * * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.daily ) 47 6 * * 7 root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.weekly ) 52 6 1 * * root test -x /usr/sbin/anacron || ( cd / && run-parts --report /etc/cron.monthly ) 00 19 * * tue USER /usr/local/bin/usurpa.sh #
At last, just link the /usr/local/bin/usurpa.sh script to the KDE or Gnome startup scripts:
root@yourhost:/# ln -s /usr/local/bin/usurpa.sh /home/USER/.config/autostart/ root@yourhost:/# chown -R USER:USER /home/USER/.config/autostart
root@yourhost:/# ln -s /usr/local/bin/usurpa.sh /home/USER/.kde/Autostart/ root@yourhost:/# chown -R USER:USER /home/USER/.kde/Autostart
It would be really nice to pack this all into a .deb file, just for the fun to run apt-get install usurpa. If any geek does it, please write a mail to the info*usurpa headquarters, we will be very happy to publish it!
