Hi,

Put all your variables into one script: init_variables.
Source this script at the beginning of your scripts:
. /path-to/init_variables

No, not that I know of. You could generate a rule which would log an
event. This event could be parsed by swatch or logsurfer. They would
then start the command.

Cheers,

Ralf
