Allow Okular to reload previously open files

This may help some folks who want to use Okular but also have their PDF files reopen between restarts. You can call saveokular.sh from cron and some other tricks so this is all seamless: $ cat /usr/local/bin/openokular.sh #!/bin/bash # Check if the file with paths exists if [ ! -f ~/.okular_open_files.txt ]; then echo "No saved PDF paths found." exit 1 fi # Open PDFs in Okular echo $1 >> ~/.okular_open_files.txt sed -i '/^$/d' ~/.okular_open_files.txt cat ~/.okular_open_files.txt | xargs -d '\n' /usr/bin/orig_okular & $ cat /usr/local/bin/saveokular.sh #!/bin/bash if pid=$(ps -C orig_okular -o pid= | sed -e 's/\s//g') && [[ -n $pid ]]; then ls -l /proc/"$pid"/fd | grep '.pdf' | awk -F ' -> ' '{print $2}' > ~/.okular_open_files.txt fi
