Yes, I gather this means that you are often working remotely. Perhaps it 
would be best in your case to always work remotely - even when you are 
at the local console. More about this later.

I'm not sure that I completely understand what you are asking Wed, but 
you can set the flag to allow sbopkg to NOT enforce only a single 
process of itself, although there are caveats to note if you choose to 
do so.

Better still, as a suggestion, would be to always run sbopkg remotely. 
i.e., since it appears that you're leaving it open most of the time the 
following would facilitate you using it without ever having to kill the 
process:

$ tmux attach

once you have a tmux (or screen, or Twin's twterm) session running, you 
can run sbopkg and just leave it. a ^b+d allows you to detach (optional 
from the local console, but you would certainly want to do this from any 
remote ssh connection) and you can also simultaneously connect to the 
the tmux session via any ssh session, or multiple ssh sessions all at 
the same time.

I hope that helps, and also that I explained it adequately.

Kindest regards,

Bradley
