I have a bash script that uses growlnotify to send notifications. However, growlnotify doesn't work if Growl isn't already running, and it won't auto start Growl if it needs it, either. So I want to be able to check if Growl is running, and then start it if it isn't.
I'm thinking of doing something like:
g=$(ps -e | grep Growl | grep -v grep)
if [ -z "$g" ] # Growl isn't running
then
# (start Growl)
fi
How would I start Growl via the command line?
