script to easily and regularlly run a bleech-bit run.

#!/bin/bash

# ideally the 'firefox-bin' in line 3 of this would be replaced by $var,
# but substitution is not working: I can't $var substitiute in here
# (the $var could be an 'egrep aaa\|bbb\|ccc ... ' list var, too.)

# is firefox running
FIREFOX_RUNNING=`ps -a \
			| awk '{ print $4 }'   \
			| grep firefox-bin     \
			| sort -u
			`;


# ideally this would be suspended for 9/10ths of the time
# how to suspend a job, programatically, from bash -- send it the ^Z
# ? do I send it the SIGTTIN signal? 
# ? do I some how include a 'suspend' command in the loop, but how?
# ? do I use bash's coproc command?

# clean caches etc if firefox is not runndding.
