The use case is to have a long-running guestfish process in a shell script, and thus to avoid the overhead of starting guestfish each time. Do: eval `guestfish --listen` guestfish --remote somecmd guestfish --remote someothercmd guestfish --remote exit This patch also supports having multiple guestfish processes at the same time. The protocol is simple XDR messages over a Unix domain socket.
