[Solved] Multiple commands inside genmon plugin script

Hi there!
I wonder if there is a way to execute two commands inside on <click> tag without evoking an additional script? I just want something like this

echo "<img>PATH/TO/IMAGE</img><click>some_command && another_command</click>

it appears that in this case only first command is executing.

It doesn't handle &s well. You need to embed them in a bash shell call. Try:

echo "<img>PATH/TO/IMAGE</img><click>bash -c 'some_command && another_command'</click>"

Hi ToZ!
Haha! Actually I did tried to exec the commands inside sh -c but I used double quotes and it didn't work out for me Single quotes work much better! Thank you!
