The stepmother is now enjoying her first few hours on Fedora. One thing that she cannot program herself to do is to close any open instance of mplayer or vlc before clicking on another file. I'm no good at bash, and I need this working for her _today_, so I'm kindly asking the Fedora community if anyone has a wrapper script for mplayer/vlc that checks if there is a running instance, and if so closes it before opening a new instance. Basically, she needs the appearance that the new file is 'replacing' the old file in the open program. Sorry for the bother, and thanks in advance.
