False positives when searching for caffeinate process #11

Closed andreiborisov closed 6 years ago

andreiborisov commented 6 years ago

When invoking workflow search command

ps -eo etime,args|grep -w caffeinate|grep -v grep|sed -e 's|^[[:space:]]*||'

on my system, I get following results:

16:39 /bin/bash /Users/schrodinger_cat/Library/Scripts/com.plexapp.plexmediaserver.caffeinate.sh 05:41 /Applications/Alfred 3.app/Contents/Preferences/Alfred Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/Alfred Preferences /Users/schrodinger_cat/Downloads/caffeinate_control.alfredworkflow 00:07 caffeinate -s -t 300

The problem is, this gives false positive results when searching, therefore workflow is always showing that caffeinate is activated and prevents enabling of caffeinate command.

Good catch, and thanks for the PR. Merged.
