I had a little problem, however, as I use flash with nspluginwrapper, so grepping on libflashplayer.so didn't quite work. I had to kind of dissect your code, as I don't know how to write such a complex script, and this is what I use at present... * To save flash videos currently displayed in Firefox, get the pid of the flash plugin (and nspluginwrapper, if being used) and the file descriptors for the flash files. Without nspluginwraper: ps -fu yourlogin | egrep 'libflashplayer\.so' With nspluginwrapper: ps -fu yourlogin | egrep 'libflashplayer\.so' | egrep 'npviewer.bin' Navigate to: /proc/<pid_from_above>/fd Copy the deleted /tmp/Flash* files: cp <links_to_deleted_files> ~/Documents/tmp/ -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
