Re: Open gnome-terminal as a cron job

Today Dylan Semler did spake thusly:

Basically, I have a program that searches certain bittorrent sites for
new torrents that I usually like.  When it finds one, I want it to
open a new terminal and run bittorrent-console in that terminal to
start downloading the torrent.

Have you considered using one of the many bittorrent command line tools instead? I use rtorrent for grabbing stuff when I'm stuck in a terminal window, saves on the overhead of X...am guessing that'd be scriptable in a far easier way...

Reader, suppose you were an idiot.  And suppose you were a member of
Congress.  But I repeat myself.
