Change the sleep file handling #31

Closed Paradox closed 1 year ago

Paradox commented 1 year ago

inotifywait will timeout, every 5 minutes and check the time in seconds contained in the sleep file, and see if the file is more than 5 minutes old, if it is, delete it, and continue, if it is less than 5 minutes old, it will go back to sleeping.

I didn't make the change to the ven file, this time, because it is a pretty big change, and, I wasn't sure how you would want to integrate it.

What's the reason for this handling.

What's the reason for this handling.

So tty2oled won't be stuck waiting if the sleep file doesn't get removed, more than about 5 minutes.. It should never happen, I have attempted to make sure SAM always deletes the sleep file, but, it could happen, if all of the processes are killed.

...I will respond in the issue thread.
