# Helper Shell Script
# Author: Rick Timmis <ricktimmis68@gmail.com>
#
# The purpose of this script is to make it as simple as possible for new kubuntu
# contributors, to get a development instance of kubuntu.org up and working
# so that they can develop new content, and maintain the site with ease

# For usage with Development IDE Configurations (i.e JetBrains or VSCode)
# the script can be called with a --stop switch

for ARG in "$@"

        # Add your stop behavior here
        pkill -HUP hugo
        pkill -HUP firefox

        # You can use `exit` or `break` depending on your script structure
        # If you want to stop the script execution if --stop is found, use `exit`
        # If you want to just stop the loop and continue with the script, use `break`
        exit
