[plug] Small problem with cut

[Sawan Vithlani]

Hello guys.

Thanks for your feedback. I like the below approach the best and am adopting 
it. I like the Awk solution too....but it prints the konq pid as well as the 
pid of the "grep kdeinit konqueror -session" in the pipeline. Can chop that 
out with another "grep -v grep" in the middle but just wastes processes. The 
Perl way is good and maybe you dont need to pipe it to cut as you can capture 
the pid in the regex match and print it out. 

But you can do it all in pgrep -f "konqueror -session" and it works!! If only 
I could have understood the bloody pgrep man page properly......

Stay tuned for a couple of KDE DCOP tricks....
