NAME

vueexec − a "wrapper" program to control terminal windows

SYNOPSIS

vueexec <open_option> <command_line>

DESCRIPTION

vueexec is used by TriTeal VUE when executing terminal-based actions.  Its’ purpose is to keep the terminal window open after the command terminates in the following circumstances:

- If the action is of type PERM-TERMINAL. 

- If the action is of type TERMINAL and the command "quickly" exits, which indicates that an error occurred. 

The "open_option" arguments are:

1. "-1" - Keep the window open when "command_line" terminates.  2. "0" - Unmap the terminal window after "command_line" terminates. 3. "n" - Keep the terminal window mapped if "command_line" terminates within "n" seconds of starting.  The default value is "3" seconds.  To change the default, set the component’s "waitTime" or "WaitTime" resource.  For example, to change the TriTeal VUE File Manager to wait "5" seconds, set the following resource: "Vuefile∗waitTime: 5". vueexec does not have any resources. 

vueexec’s default path is "/usr/vue/bin".  To change this location, set the component’s "vueexecPath" or "VueexecPath" resource.  For example, to change the TriTeal VUE File Manager’s vueexec path to "/usr/local/bin", set the following resource: "Vuefile∗vueexecPath: /usr/local/bin".
