Its no longer visible. File still exists physicly on the disk, but it gets lost somewhere within the arrays...

As in:
Code:
+ ~/tmp/9388 $ sh ../../psm-mini.sh *
Scripts @ start
Starting: script1
Starting: script2
Starting: script3
Starting: script4
Scrips @ done
Scripts @ work
script1 works : 19364
script2 works : 19365
script3 works : 19367
script4 works : 19369
wait for update: 5
...
some screen updates later
...
Scripts @ start
Scrips @ done
script2 ended 0
script4 ended 0
script1 ended 0
Scripts @ work
wait for update: 5

As soon the first script ends, script3 gets 'lost'

EDIT:
Also, when i change LIMIT to 2, all 4 scripts are started at once.. Smilie

NAME
stapgraph - systemtap grapher SYNOPSIS
stapgraph [ OPTIONS ] FILENAME [ ARGUMENTS ] stapgraph [ OPTIONS ] - [ ARGUMENTS ] stapgraph [ OPTIONS ] -e SCRIPT [ ARGUMENTS ] DESCRIPTION
The stapgraph program is a simple frontend to stap that produces graphs from the output of stap scripts. This manual corresponds to version 1.7. OPTIONS
stapgraph accepts all options accepted by stap. They are passed through to the stap process running the script or probe points. USER INTERFACE
The script that produces results can be started from a dialog within the program, in addition to being launched using the program's command line arguments. This dialog allows arguments to be passed to stap and to the script. When running, a mouse left click on a graph pauses the display of data, even though it is still collected by the program. Dragging the mouse scrolls the graph backwards and forwards in time; clicking the displayed pause button restarts the display of new data. The scroll wheel can be used to zoom in and out on the graph. SCRIPT OUTPUT SYNTAX
Scripts can output Comma Separated Values (CSV) which will be interpreted by stapgraph. The first value is the X coordinate of the graph, usually a time value. stapgraph assumes that this value is constantly increasing. A different syntax allows the script to specify many details of the graph's appearance. %DataSet: DATA-SET-NAME SCALE COLOR GRAPHSTYLE The data set name identifies a data set that will be emitted by the script. "SCALE" is the overall vertical scale of the graph for this data set. "COLOR" is a red-green-blue hex color. "GRAPHSTYLE" is one of bar - a traditional bar graph dot - plotted points discreet - An event style timeline that records that an event happened at a certain time. %Title: TITLE A title for the whole graph. %XAxisTitle: TITLE The legend for the X axis %YAxisTitle: TITLE The legend for the Y axis. %YMax: MAX VALUE The maximum value displayed on the graph. GRAPH DATA
DATA SET TIME VALUE Each data point that is to be plotted is tagged with the data set name, followed by the time and value of the point. SEE ALSO
