Yup.  The script I use to start acme (in p9p) in my preferred
configuration (autoindent, 3 columns, specific fonts) uses my
'ensure_plumber' script:

#!/bin/sh
if 9p stat plumb > /dev/null 2>&1
then
        exit
else
        plumber
fi

to ensure that the plumber is running.  This works nicely for me, as I
can exit and restart acme, and the plumber continues running.  When I
log out of this linux system, however, t appears that the plumber is not
killed, and the next time I log in and start acme, the script sees that
the plumber is still running and doesn't start it.  Unfortunately, that
running plumber doesn't seem to be work right because when I click on a
URL in acme it doesn't get opened in my web browser.  I have to kill and
restart the plumber to get this to work.

I haven't been able to figure what is actually going wrong.  Any hints
or suggestions would be gratefully accepted.

        thanks,
