Charles Lehner c64c368d86 Reload on SIGHUP
ratiueratuie rstiure tiurest aruite rautie rautier tiue rtaruit ratiuera
This patch makes surf reload its pages when it receives a SIGHUP signal.
This makes it easier for shell scripts to trigger surf to reload.

I'm aware of using xdotool to trigger ctrl+r keypresses for reloading
but I wasn't able to get that to work in a general way. [1]

I'm sending this here in case surf maintainers and users would like to
include this in core - if not I will submit it to the wiki.

Regards,
Charles

surf - simple webkit-based browser
==================================
surf is a simple Web browser based on WebKit/GTK+.

Requirements
------------
In order to build surf you need GTK+ and Webkit/GTK+ header files.

In order to use the functionality of the url-bar, also install dmenu[0].

Installation
------------
Edit config.mk to match your local setup (surf is installed into
the /usr/local namespace by default).

Afterwards enter the following command to build and install surf (if
necessary as root):

    make clean install

Running surf
------------
run
	surf [URI]

See the manpage for further options.

Running surf in tabbed
----------------------
For running surf in tabbed[1] there is a script included in the distribution,
which is run like this:

	surf-open.sh [URI]

Further invocations of the script will run surf with the specified URI in this
instance of tabbed.
