Tweak 5:

In /usr/bin/welcome

This line:

    eval $browser http://localhost/

...can lose the "eval" and still work fine. Perhaps this is nitpicking. Last
year a relative of mine contracted a terrible case of head lice, and so I got
to be pretty good at hunting for nits. Interesting to see one under a
microscope. Those lice are all gone now, thank goodness.


#!/bin/ash
# welcome (by M. Andreoli)

#set -x

. /etc/color

echo "Starting the ... tour :)"
sleep 1

# start the browser

if [ "`which lynx`" ] ; then
        browser=lynx
else
        browser=quark
fi
  

        echo "GET /" | /usr/bin/nc -w 1 localhost 80 2>/dev/null 1>&2

        if [ $? -eq 0 ] ; then
                sleep 2 # wait for httpd coming up
                $browser http://localhost/
        else
                echo "Server web not running."
        fi
