Created launcher for programs on linux(ubuntu) from arduino

since linux not have eventghost windows, created launcher programs linux

you run launcher python script on htpc/computer under ubuntu

from arduino can launch programs on htpc/computer sending http command arduino ethernet shield launcher python script running on htpc/computer

and stuff like:

start/stop xbmc
start/stop chrome
change wallpaper
launch url's in chrome
start terminal
start nemo
etc...

as confirmation program started on htpc/computer, pushover notification send phone/tablet

but can comment out/delete code if don't want/need this

you can use android/ios  apps tasker or netio launch programs on htpc/computer instead of using arduino

code here:

"spambus" not inspire confidence.
