This works nicely for me, as I
can exit and restart acme, and the plumber continues running. When I

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.
I have a few programs that need to be stopped when I log out, that aren't
stopped automatically (ssh-agent, plumber). I use KDE, so to do this, I
have a set of shutdown scripts that kill these processes on logout and
start them on login. Your window manager may have something similar for
you to use.
